Question

2.6
A jacket marked R299 is sold at a discount of 12,5%. Determine the selling
price.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The discount =12.5%

That means you take 12.5% of R299

12.5/100 * R 299 = R37.375

So all you need to do is subtract this from the original price.

R299 - R37.375 = R261.625

Selling Price = R261.625

There are 100 paise in a rupee. That means that the answer should be rounded to 2 decimal places.

Selling Price = R261.63
