List price of an article at a show room is ₹ 2,000 and it is being sold at successive discounts of 20 % and 10 %. Its net selling price will be :
-
- ₹ 1900
- ₹1700
- ₹ 1440
- ₹ 1400
Correct Option: C
Equivalent discount for successive discounts of 20% and 10%

100 |
Alternate method to solve this question:
Here, M.P. = ₹ 2000,
D1 = 20%, D2 = 10%
S.P. = M.P. | ||||||||
100 | 100 |
= | 2000 × | ||||||||
100 | 100 |
