  1. A fan is listed at $ 1500 and a discount of 20% is offered on the list price. What additional discount must be offered to the customer to bring the net price to $ 1104?
    1. 8 %
    2. 10 %
    3. 12 %
    4. 15 %
Correct Option: A

Let Additional discount = D %
Given :- Marked Price ( M.P. ) = $ 1500
Discount = 20%
∴ Selling Price ( S.P. ) = $ 1200
Let, 1200 - D % of 1200 = $ 1104
⇒ D % of 1200 = 1200 - 1104 = 96

D × 1200 = 96 ⇒ D = 8
100

∴ An additional discount of 8% must be offered to the customer to bring the net price to $ 1104.
