3 Major Concerns Students Face in Solving Percentage Problems - Exercise Question #1
All the 7 books of the fictional character series Horry Patter are individually available at a price of $8 each. However, at the time of the launch of the 8th book, the publisher also made available the set of all 8 books together at a limited-edition price of $60 for the whole set. If the 8th book is also of the same price as previous 7, what is savings percentage for Harry, who bought the whole set together?

Price of 8 books 8*$8=$64
Price of bulk $60
We get $4 discount from original price
So (4/64)*100 is the % discount offered when selling in bulk
In My Opinion
Ans: B IMHO

The total price if books are bought individually = 8 x $8 = $64.
The total price if bought as a set = $60.
Savings = $4.
%savings = \(\frac{$4}{$64} x 100\)
%savings = 6.25%.
Option B
