A fan is listed at ₹ 1500 and a discount of 20% is offered on the list price. What additional
discount must be offered to the customer to bring the net price to ₹ 1104 ?

1. 8%
2. 10%
3. 12%
4. 15%

Correct Option: A

After a discount of 20%,
Listed price = 80% of ₹ 1500

= ₹		1500 ×	80		= ₹ 1200
			100

Difference
= ₹ (1200 – 1104) = ₹ 96
Let x % of 1200 = 96

⇒ x =	96 × 100	= 8
	1200

∴ Second discount = 8%
