  1. The marked price of a watch is ₹ 1000. A retailer buys it at ₹ 810 after getting two successive discounts of 10% and another rate which is illegible. What is the second discount rate?
    1. 15%
    2. 10%
    3. 8%
    4. 6.5%
Correct Option: B

Price after 10% first discount

= 1000 ×
100 − 10
100

= 1000 ×
90
= ₹ 900
100

Given that :
Price after second discount = ₹ 810
∴  Second discount = 900 – 810 = 90
∴  Percentage of second discount =
90 × 100
= 10 %
100
