Question

A laptop is priced at ₹40,000. A customer gets a discount of ₹4,000 on it. After the discount, the customer buys a mouse for ₹1,500 at a 20% discount. What is the total amount the customer spends on both items?

A.

₹35,500

B.

₹36,500

C.

₹37,200

D.

₹38,600

Correct option is C

Given:
Price o laptop = ₹40,000
Discount on laptop = ₹4,000
Price of mouse = ₹1,500
Discount on mouse = 20%
Formula Used:
Discount Amount=(Discount %100)×Marked Price\text{Discount Amount} = \left(\frac{\text{Discount \%}}{100}\right) \times \text{Marked Price}​​
Selling Price = Marked Price − Discount
Solution:
Selling Price of laptop = 40,000 − 4,000 = ₹36,000
Discount on mouse = 20100\frac{20}{100}​× 1,500 = ₹300
Selling Price of mouse = 1,500 − 300 = ₹1,200
Total amount spent = 36,000 + 1,200 = ₹37,200
Therefore, the total amount spent on both items is ₹37,200.
