A sample question from this test
a study table is sold for ₹3,150 after a discount of 10% on the marked price. What is the marked price (in ₹)?
- 3,505
- 3,499
- 3,502
- 3,500
Answer: D. 3,500. Marked price = selling price ÷ (1 − 10/100) = 3,150 ÷ 0.9 = ₹3,500.
How to approach this test
Successive discounts multiply (they do not add): 20% then 10% is 0.8 × 0.9 = 0.72, a single discount of 28%.
This set leans hard, with multi-step questions, so treat it as a stretch: attempt the questions you can see a method for first and return to the rest. At 30 questions in 45 minutes, you have about 90 seconds per question on average. After you submit, review every wrong or guessed answer using the explanations.
