the equivalant discount to two successive discounts of 25% and 15%, is _______________________________________-

• let the price be 100
  100 when given 25% = 75
  75 when given 15 % = 63.75
  
  so overall discount = 100-63.75 = 36.25%
  answer is 36.25%

• ans is 36.25
  let the value is 100
  first 25% discout=75
  second 15% of 75=75*85/100=63.75
  so discount=100-(63.75*100/100)=36.25

• Ans:- 36.25
  
  Solution:-
  
  
  A = 25
  B = 15
  
  equivalent discount = A+B-(A*B)/100
  = 25+15-(25*15)/100
  = 40-3.75
  = 36.25
