A. 32.68%
B. 35.28%
C. 36.68%
D. None of these
Answer: Option A
Solution (By Examveda Team)
Let marked price be Rs. 100Then,
S.P. = 85% of 88% of 90% of Rs. 100
$$\eqalign{ & = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.}}\left( {\frac{{85}}{{100}} \times \frac{{88}}{{100}} \times \frac{{90}}{{100}} \times 100} \right) \cr & = {\text{Rs}}.67.32 \cr} $$
∴ Single Discount
= (100 - 67.32)%
= 32.68%
