Question

Nisha buys a gold ring for her mother. The ring is marked at ₹88,000 and is offered with two successive discounts of 25% and Z%, respectively. After receiving both discounts, she pays ₹33,000. Find the value of Z.

A.

B.

50

C.

D.

51

Correct option is B

Given:
Marked Price (MP) = ₹88,000
First discount = 25%
Second discount = Z%
Final Selling Price (SP) = ₹33,000
Formula Used:
Price after discount = MP ×(1Discount100) (1 - \frac{\text{Discount}}{100})​​
Solution:
Calculate the price after the first discount of 25%:
Price = 88000 × (125100) (1 - \frac{25}{100})​​

= 88000 × 75100\frac{75}{100}​​

= 88000 × 0.75 = 66000
Now, a second discount of Z% is applied on ₹66,000 to bring the price to ₹33,000.
Discount amount = 66000 - 33000 = 33000
Value of Z = 3300066000×100\frac{33000}{66000} × 100​​

Z = 12×100=50%\frac{1}{2} × 100 = 50\%​​
Final Answer
So the correct answer is (b)
