  1. A man buys a single apple for $ 25. If he were to buy a dozen apples, he would have to pay a total amount of $ 250. What would be the approximate % discount he would get on buying a dozen apples?
    1. 32
    2. 20
    3. 12
    4. 17
Correct Option: D

Given :- Cost of one apple = $ 25
∴ Cost of 12 apples ( M.P. ) = 25 × 12 = $ 300
Amount paid = $ 250
Discount = 300 - 250 = $ 50

Discount% = Discount x 100%
Marked Price

% Discount =
50 x 100
= 17 % (approx.)
300
