What is the discount that Rohan should offer on the remaining ₹8,000 of a laptop priced at ₹48,000, given that, he has already given a 12% discount on the first ₹28,000 and 8% discount on the next ₹12,000 to match the discount amount of 9.5% given on the total price?
A.₹402
B.₹240✓ Correct
C.₹204
D.₹420
Explanation
Total discount needed = 9.5% of 48000 = ₹4560. Discount on first ₹28000 = 12% × 28000 = ₹3360. Discount on next ₹12000 = 8% × 12000 = ₹960. Remaining discount = 4560 − 3360 − 960 = ₹240.
