In a clearance sale, a sari whose marked price was ₹10,490 is now sold for…

Solution

Given:

Marked Price (MP) = ₹10,490
Selling Price (SP) = ₹9,441

First, find the discount amount:

Discount = Marked Price − Selling Price

= 10,490 − 9,441

= ₹1,049

Now, calculate the discount percentage:

Discount Percentage = (Discount ÷ Marked Price) × 100

= (1,049 ÷ 10,490) × 100

= 0.10 × 100

= 10%

Therefore, the discount offered on the sari is 10%.
