Mr. Rehman ordered a car worth Rs. 600,000 and was given a discount. Given that he paid Rs. 570,000 for his new car. He received ______ percentage discount.
Answer: 5%
Explanation
To find the percentage discount, first, calculate the amount of the discount:
Discount = Original price - Paid price
= Rs 600,000 - Rs 570,000
= Rs 30,000
Then, divide the discount by the original price and multiply by 100:
Percentage discount = (Discount ÷ Original price) × 100
= (Rs 30,000 ÷ Rs 600,000) × 100
= 5%
So, Mr. Rehman received a 5% discount on his car purchase.
