Sanoj   14 years AGO

50% of 200 = 100
and 30% of 200 = 60 then 200-60 = 140
and 20% of 140 = 28 then 140-28 = 112

So Answer is 112-100=12 (Answer)

In Product 1, there is a discount offer of 50%.
Therefore, its new price is reduced by (50/100)*200= Rs. 100.
In Product 2, there is a discount offer of 30%+20%.
Therefore, first discount is= (30/100)*200= Rs. 60 and discounted price = Rs. 200-60= Rs. 140.
Second discount is 20% and discounted price= Rs. 140- {(20/100)*140}= Rs. 112.
Therfore, price of Product 2 is reduced by Rs. 200-112= Rs. 88.
So, difference in discount amount of the two products is= Rs. 100-88= Rs. 12..... Option 6)

Discount in 1st case 200*50/100 = 100
in 2nd case
200*30/100 = Rs 60.
again (200-60)*20/100 =Rs 28
total discount = 60 +28 = Rs 88.

Difference = 100 - 88 = Rs12.00
