Question : A sells a car priced at Rs. 36000. He gives a discount of 8% on the first Rs. 20,000 and 5% on the remaining Rs. 16,000. B also sells a car of the same make, priced at Rs. 36000. He gives a discount of 7% on the total price. Calculate the actual prices charged by A and B for the cars.
Option 1: A = Rs. 33,500
B = Rs. 33,400
Option 2: A = Rs. 33,480
B = Rs. 33,600
Option 3: A = Rs. 33,450
B = Rs. 33,650
Option 4: A = Rs. 33,600
B = Rs. 33,480
Correct Answer:
A = Rs. 33,600
B = Rs. 33,480
Solution :
Selling price of A = Rs. 36000
Total discount by A = $20000 \times \frac{8}{100}+16000 \times \frac{5}{100}$ = 1600 + 800 = Rs. 2400
$\therefore$ Actual price charged by A = Rs. 36000 − Rs. 2400 = Rs. 33600
Actual price charged by B = Rs. $36000\times \frac{100−7}{100}= 36000\times \frac{93}{100}$ = Rs. 33480
Hence, the correct answer is A = Rs. 33600 and B = Rs. 33480.
