Question : Find the effective discount for the scheme – Buy 5 get 3 free.
Option 1: 36.5%
Option 2: 37.5%
Option 3: 36%
Option 4: 37%
Correct Answer: 37.5%
Solution :
Let the price of 1 article be Re. 1.
Total articles = 5 + 3 = 8
So, the price of 8 articles is Rs. 8.
$\therefore$ Discount percentage $=\frac{\text{Free articles}}{\text{Total articles}}×100=\frac{3}{8}×100=37.5\%$
Hence, the correct answer is 37.5%.
