• A. Rs 210
• B. Rs 540
• C. Rs 405
• D. Rs 450

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Marked price of the bag = \(Rs. 600\)

So, the Relative discount after successive discounts of 25% and 10% will be = \(25 + 10 - (\frac{25 \times 10}{100}) = 32.5\)%

The Sale price will be = \(600 - (\frac{32.5}{100} \times 600)\)

= \(600 - 195\)

= \(Rs. 405\)

The correct option is (C): Rs.405
