Correct Answer: 10%
Solution :
Given: The marked price is Rs. 650 and the selling price is Rs. 585.
Discount percentage $ =\frac{(MP–SP)}{MP}×100$, where MP = marked price, SP = selling price
⇒ Discount percentage $ = \frac{(650–585)}{650}×100=\frac{65}{650} × 100=10$%
Hence, the correct answer is 10%.
