If the marked price of an article is ₹18000 and the discount is 10%, then find the discount amount.

Given :

Marked price $=$ ₹ 18000.

Discount % $=$ 10%.

To do :

We have to find the discount amount.

Solution :

We know that,

Discount % $= (Actual Discount ÷ M.P.) \times 100$%

10% $= \frac{Discount}{18000} \times 100$%

Discount $=  10 \times 180$

Discount $= ₹1800$.

The discount amount is ₹1800.
