Correct Answer: INR 2,137.50
Solution : The cost of one product is INR 500. The customer buys five products. ⇒ The total cost without any discount = 5 × 500 = INR 2500 Now, apply the first discount of 5% ⇒ Discounted amount= (100% – 5%) × 2500 = 0.95 × 2500 = INR 2375 Here, if the discounted amount is more than INR 2000, apply the additional discount of 10%. $\therefore$ The final amount = 0.9 × 2375 = INR 2137.50 Hence, the correct answer is INR 2137.50.
