Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

The equivalent discount for successive discounts is calculated using the formula: d1 + d2 - (d1 * d2)/100.

For A (10% and 15%): 10 + 15 - (10 * 15)/100 = 23.5%, which matches III.

For B (20% and 30%): 20 + 30 - (20 * 30)/100 = 44%, which matches IV.

For C (10% and 20%): 10 + 20 - (10 * 20)/100 = 28%, which matches I.

For D (10% and 25%): 10 + 25 - (10 * 25)/100 = 32.5%, which matches II.

Therefore, the correct matching is A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II.
