A sample question from this test
The marked price of a jacket is ₹1,400 and a discount of 30% is offered. What is the selling price (in ₹)?
- 1,176
- 980
- 1,078
- 882
Answer: B. 980. Selling price = 1400 × (100 − 30) ÷ 100 = ₹980.
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 25 questions in 40 minutes, you have about 96 seconds per question on average. After you submit, review every wrong or guessed answer using the explanations.
