A manufacturer allows a discount of 30% on the list of prices of goods bought by wholesalers. Calculate the discount allowed on the following prices.

a) 800,000
b) 1,000,000​

Answer 1

a) 10 percent of 800,000 is 80,000

80,000*3=240,000

They will allow a discount of 240,000, making the price 560,000.

b) 10 percent of 1,000,000 is 100,000

100,000*3=300,000

They will allow a discount of 300,000, making the price, 700,000.
