Question

The 30% discount on the tennis racket amounts to 89.70. compute the list / original selling price and the net price after discount

Answer 1

Ans) Full price is always 100%. For eg- if the cost of any good is $100, then 30% discount will be equal to $30.

We will here use unitary method, that we learned in maths.

30% = 89.70, then

100% = [(89.70)/30] ×100 = 299

Real price of the product is $299.

Now after 30% discount, he will have to pay = $299 - $89.70 = $209.3

Or we can compute it the other way, i.e 30% discount means he will have to pay 70% of the amount.

70% of $299 = .70 × $299 = $209.3
