A product with marked price ₹3,000 is sold with successive discounts of 15% and 25%. What is the final selling price after these two discounts?
₹1,912.50
The marked price is ₹3,000.
After the first discount of \(15\%\), the price becomes \(3000\times\frac{85}{100}=2550\).
After the second discount of \(25\%\), the price becomes \(2550\times\frac{75}{100}=1912.5\).
Hence, the final selling price is ₹1,912.50.
