Correct Answer: INR 720


Solution : The bill is INR 50,000.
After a 40% flat discount, the new bill is for  $\frac{50000×60}{100}=30000$
After successive discounts of 36% and 4%, the new bill is for $\frac{50000×64×96}
{100×100}=30720$
The difference is (30720 – 30000) = INR 720
Hence, the correct answer is INR 720.
