A wholesaler offers a discount of 10% on a commodity, marked at ₹3,000, on an order of less than 20 items. Also, on an order of more than 20 items, an additional discount of 5% is offered on the commodity. What amount does a retailer have to pay to purchase 25 items of the commodity whose marked price is ₹3,000?
₹64,125
Since the order is for 25 items (more than 20), both the 10% and additional 5% discounts apply successively.
Price per item: \(3000\times0.90\times0.95 = 2565\).
Total for 25 items: \(2565\times25 = 64{,}125\).
Hence, the retailer has to pay ₹64,125 for 25 items.
