Indian Economy - Understanding the basics of Indian economic system

A housewife saved Rs. 2.50 in buying an item on sale. If she spent Rs. 25 for the item, approximately how much percent she saved in the transaction ?

Actual price = Rs. (25 + 2.50) = Rs. 27.50.

Saving = 2.50

Percentage Saving = [(2.50/27.50)*100]

= 2500 /275 = 9 1/11% ≈9%

Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.
