    Question

    A shopkeeper allows successive discount of 20% and 15% on an item of marked price Rs. 2,000. At what price did he sell the item?

    A.

    Rs. 1,300

    B.

    Rs. 1,240

    C.

    Rs. 1,360

    D.

    Rs. 1,200

    Correct option is C

    Given :
    Marked Price = 2000
    First Discount = 20%
    Second Discount = 15%

    Formula Used:
    Selling Price = Marked Price × (1 - First Discount) × (1 - Second Discount)

    Solution:
    Selling Price = ₹2,000 × (1 - 0.20) × (1 - 0.15)
    = 2000 × 0.80 × 0.85
    = ₹1360
