12% और 13% की क्रमिक छूट किसी एकल छूट के बराबर होगी।
Detailed Solution & Logic
Correct Answer:
23.44%
We are asked: Successive discounts of 12% and 13% are equivalent to what single discount?
Step 1: Formula for successive discounts
Equivalent single discount $D = d_1 + d_2 - \frac{d_1 \cdot d_2}{100}$
Step 2: Substitute $d_1 = 12$, $d_2 = 13$
$D = 12 + 13 - \frac{12 \cdot 13}{100} = 25 - 1.56 = 23.44$
✅ Equivalent single discount = 23.44%
