A. $$11\frac{1}{9}$$%
B. 15%
C. 8%
D. None of these
Answer: Option D
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Selling price after given 20% discount$$\eqalign{ & = 150 \times \frac{{\left( {100 - 20} \right)}}{{100}} \cr & = 120 \cr & {\text{So,}} \cr & \Rightarrow 120 \times \frac{x}{{100}} = 108 \cr & \Rightarrow x = 90 \cr} $$
∴ Required additional discount = (100 - 90)% = 10%
