A sample question from this test
a headset marked at ₹3,200 is sold after successive discounts of 25% and 15%. What is the selling price (in ₹)?
- 2,040
- 2,244
- 1,836
- 2,448
Answer: A. 2,040. Selling price = 3200 × 0.75 × 0.85 = ₹2,040.00.
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 mixes straightforward questions with a few that need an extra step, so it works well as a checkpoint once the basics are comfortable. At 10 questions in 15 minutes, you have about 90 seconds per question on average. After you submit, review every wrong or guessed answer using the explanations.
