    A)  8%      

    B)  10%

    C)  15%                            

    D)  12%

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Frist discount = 20% Price after first discount = Rs. \[\left( 1500-\frac{20}{100}\times 1500 \right)\] = Rs. \[(1500-300)\]= Rs. 1200 Let the additional discount be x% . \[\therefore \]      \[\left( 1200-\frac{x\times 1200}{100} \right)=1104\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[1200-12x=1104\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[12x=1200-1104=96\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[x=\frac{96}{12}=8%\]
