Two successive discounts of 10% and 5%, in this order, are given on a bill of ₹ 110. Find the net amount of money payable to clear the bill. (answer to the nearest rupee)

Use the below formula to calculate the Single equivalent discount.

Single equivalent discount =		D₁ + D₂ −	D₁× D₂		%
			100

Single equivalent discount =		10 + 5 −	10 × 5		%
			100

Single equivalent discount = 14.5 %
∴ Amount to be paid = (100 – 14.5)% of 110

⇒ Amount to be paid =	110 ×85.5	= ₹ 94.05
	100

⇒ Amount to be paid ≈ ₹ 94
