Correct Answer: $6\frac{2}{3}\%$
Solution : Given: The marked price is Rs. 30,000 and the selling price is Rs. 28,000. Discount $\%=\frac{\text{(MP-SP)}}{\text{MP}}×100$, where MP = marked price, SP = selling price ⇒ Discount $\%=\frac{(30000–28000)}{30000}×100=\frac{20}{3} =6\frac{2}{3}\%$ Hence, the correct answer is $6\frac{2}{3}\%$.
