Correct Answer: INR 504


Solution : The marked price of the shirt = INR 700
1st discount = 10%
2nd discount = 20%
We know that,
For two successive discounts selling price
= $\frac{100-\text{Discount}_1\%}{100}× \frac{100-\text{Discount}_2\%}{100}×$ marked price
= $\frac{100-10}{100}× \frac{100-20}{100}×700$
= $\frac{90}{100}× \frac{80}{100}×700$
= $504$
Hence, the correct answer is INR 504.
