Question

Tarun bought a T.V with $20\%$ discount on the labelled price. If he had bought it with $25\%$ discount, he would have saved $₹500$. At what price did he buy the T.V.?

• A. $₹8,000$
• B. $₹10,000$
• C. $₹12,000$
• D. $₹16,000$

Answer 1

Difference = 500

5% = 500.

100% = (500 *100)/5 = 10000.

100% is the labeled price.

So, TV price = 10000 - 20% of 10000 = 80% of 10000  = 8000.
