Correct Answer: C [Third offer] Explanation: (i) Equivalent discount $=(25+15)-\frac{25\times 15}{100})\mathrm{\%}$ $=40-3.75$ =36.25 (ii) Equivalent discount $=(30+10)-\frac{30\times 10}{100})\mathrm{\%}$ $=40-3$ =37 (iii) Equivalent discount $=(35+5)-\frac{35\times 5}{100})\mathrm{\%}$ $=40-1.75$ $=38.25$ Now we can easily say that third discount is best. Hence option c is our answer. anuradha ? answered Apr 20 '2018 at 13:46 All Comments
