Question : A dining set listed at INR 5000 is sold to a man at successive discounts of 20% and 10% by the shopkeeper. What is the selling price of the dining set?
Option 1: INR 3600
Option 2: INR 4800
Option 3: INR 1000
Option 4: INR 4000
Correct Answer: INR 3600
 
  Solution :
 
 Marked price = INR 5000
 
  Two discounts are 20% and 10%.
  
  So,
  
  Selling price = $\frac{100-\text{Discount}_1\%}{100}× \frac{100-\text{Discount}_2\%}{100}×$ marked price
  
  = 5000 × $\frac{100-20}{100}$ × $\frac{100-10}{100}$
  
  = 5000 × $\frac{80}{100}$ × $\frac{90}{100}$
  
  = INR 3600
  
  Hence, the correct answer is INR 3600.
