Answer 1

Hint: We have to calculate the total marked price of the products given and then calculate discount on the marked place $.$ After subtracting the discounted price $,$ we will get the amount that Rashmi paid for the clothes $.$

Complete step-by-step solution
We have been given marked price of the winter wear clothes which are ₹$186,$ ₹$839,$and ₹$345.$
Also, we have been given the discount that Rashmi got on clothes $ = 20\% $
Step 1:So, total cost of the products without discount $ = $ ₹$186 + $₹$839 + $₹$345 = $₹$1370$
Step 2 $:$ Now, $20\% $ discount on marked price of clothes $ = $ $(1370 \times \dfrac{{20}}{{100}})$ $ = $ ₹$274$
Step 3 $:$ So, the total cost price of clothes after discount $ = $ ₹$1370$ $ - $ ₹$274 = $ ₹$1096$
Therefore $,$ the price she paid for winter wear clothes is ₹$1096.$

Note:Students should take care of calculations while solving$.$ Always keep in mind to take discounts on marked price $.$ The amount we get after subtracting the discounted price from marked price is cost price $.$.Marked price or list price is the price which we see on the label of an article$.$
