I – 20% और 20% की दो क्रमिक छूट
II – 25% और 15% की दो क्रमिक छूट
III – 30% और 10% की दो क्रमिक छूट
IV – 5% और 35% दो क्रमिक छूट
कौन-सा ऑफर विद्यार्थी को सबसे अधिक छूट प्रदान करता है?
Detailed Solution & Logic
IV
formula = net Discount % = a + b - $ \frac{ab}{100}$
discounts of 20% and 20%
= 20+20 - $\frac{20\times 20}{100} $ = 36%
= 25+15 - $\frac{25\times 15}{100} $ = 36.25%
= 30+10 - $\frac{30 \times 10}{100} $ = 37%
=5 + 35 -$\frac{5\times 35} {100} $ =38.25%
Answer = Scheme IV gives maximum discount
