Solution
Case I : Trader sells 150 metres of cloth for Rs. 6,600
=> S.P. per metre = Rs. $\frac{6600}{150}$
= Rs. 44
Case II : Trader sells 300 metres of cloth for Rs. 12,750
=> S.P. per metre = Rs. $\frac{12750}{300}$
= Rs. 42.5
$\therefore$ Required discount = Rs. (44 - 42.5) = Rs. 1.5
Case I : Trader sells 150 metres of cloth for Rs. 6,600
=> S.P. per metre = Rs. $\frac{6600}{150}$

Case II : Trader sells 300 metres of cloth for Rs. 12,750

= Rs. 42.5
$\therefore$ Required discount = Rs. (44 - 42.5) = Rs. 1.5
