A store announces a festive deal: "Get 30% off on purchases above Rs. 10,000, and an additional Rs. 1,000 off if the total after discount exceeds Rs. 15,000." A customer buys items worth Rs. 25,000. How much does the customer finally pay?

1. Rs. 16,500
2. Rs. 17,500
3. Rs. 16,000
4. Rs. 17,000

Correct answer: Rs. 16,500

Solution

On Rs. 25,000, a 30% discount gives Rs. 17,500. Since this amount is still above Rs. 15,000, an additional Rs. 1,000 is deducted. Final payment = Rs. 16,500.
