A refrigerator is priced at ₹45,000. A customer gets a discount of ₹5,000 on it. After the discount, the customer buys a voltage stabilizer for ₹2,000 at a 15% discount. What is the total amount the customer spends on both items?

1. ₹ 42,000
2. ₹ 41,500
3. ₹ 42,700
4. ₹ 41,700

Correct answer: ₹ 41,700

Solution

The refrigerator costs ₹45,000 - ₹5,000 = ₹40,000 after discount. The stabilizer costs 85% of ₹2,000 = ₹1,700 after discount. Total spending = ₹40,000 + ₹1,700 = ₹41,700.
