Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

To find the discount percentage, follow these steps:

Step 1: Calculate the discount amount: Marked Price - Selling Price = 8000 - 7200 = 800.

Step 2: Use the formula: (Discount / Marked Price) × 100.

Step 3: (800 / 8000) × 100 = 10%.

Therefore, the discount percentage is 10%.

हिन्दी उत्तर:

छूट प्रतिशत ज्ञात करने के लिए निम्नलिखित चरणों का पालन करें:

चरण 1: छूट की राशि की गणना करें: अंकित मूल्य - बिक्री मूल्य = 8000 - 7200 = 800।

चरण 2: सूत्र का उपयोग करें: (छूट / अंकित मूल्य) × 100।

चरण 3: (800 / 8000) × 100 = 10%।

इसलिए, छूट प्रतिशत 10% है।
