A shopkeeper gives a discount of 10% on the marked price. If the selling price is ₹6,750, then find the discount.
Given:
Selling Price =₹6750
Discount =10%
Formula Used:
Discount
Selling Price = Marked Price - Discount
Solution:
Let the marked price be x
Then discount = 10% of x = 0.1x
Selling Price = x - 0.1x = 0.9x
0.9x = 6750
Discount = 7500 - 6750 = ₹750
Alternative Method:
Let marked price be 100
Discount = 10% of 100 = 10
Then selling price = 100 - 10 = 90
90 = 6750
