  1. The cost of servicing of a Maruti car at Maruti care Pvt. Ltd. is Rs. 400. Manager of service center told me that for the second service within a year a customer can avail a 10% discount and further for third and forth servicing he can avail 10% discount of the previous amount paid, within a year Further if a customer gets more than 4 services within a year he has to pay just 60% of the servicing charges on these services. A customer availed 5 services from the same servicing station, What is the total percentage discount fetched by the customer?
    1. 19.42%
    2. 18.5%
    3. 17.6%
    4. 26%
Correct Option: A

Amount paid in 1st service = 100 (suppose)
Amount paid in 2nd service = 90
Amount paid in 3rd service = 81
Amount paid in 4th service = 72.9
Amount paid in 5th service = 60
Total amount paid = 403.9
Discount = 500 - 403.9 = 96.1
Discount % = 96.1 / 500 X 100 = 19.42%
