A pair of shoes is marked at ₹2800 and is subject to a trade discount of 18%. Under a special offer, a customer buys 5 pairs at the discounted price and gets an additional 2 pairs at 50% off the discounted price. Find the total cost to the customer for 7 pairs of shoes.
₹ 13,776
Discounted price per pair after 18% off the marked price: \(2800 \times (1 - 0.18) = 2800 \times 0.82 = 2296\).
Cost of 5 pairs at the discounted price: \(5 \times 2296 = 11480\).
The additional 2 pairs are at 50% off the discounted price: \(2296 \times 0.5 = 1148\) per pair, so \(2 \times 1148 = 2296\).
Total cost for 7 pairs: \(11480 + 2296 = 13776\).
Hence, the total cost to the customer is ₹13,776.
