Round-trip tickets to a tourist destination are eligible for a discount of 10% on the total fare. In addition, groups of 4 or more get a discount of 5% on the total fare. If the one way single person fare is Rs 100, a group of 5 tourists purchasing round-trip tickets will be charged Rs _________.
Correct : ₹855
One way single person fare = ₹100
Round-trip fare for 1 person = 100 × 2 = ₹200
Total fare for 5 persons = 200 × 5 = ₹1000
Discount 1 (Round-trip discount) = 10% of 1000 = ₹100
Fare after first discount = 1000 − 100 = ₹900
Discount 2 (Group of 5 discount) = 5% of 900 = ₹45
Fare after second discount = 900 − 45 = ₹855
A group of 5 tourists purchasing round-trip tickets will be charged ₹855
