Discount space to space be space written minus off space left parenthesis 2017 minus 18 right parenthesis equals fraction numerator 6 comma 00 comma 000 over denominator 20 comma 00 comma 000 end fraction cross times 1 comma 20 comma 000 equals Rs space 36 comma 000
Discount space to space be space written minus off space left parenthesis 2018 minus 19 right parenthesis equals fraction numerator 8 comma 00 comma 000 over denominator 20 comma 00 comma 000 end fraction cross times 1 comma 20 comma 000 equals Rs space 48 comma 000
Discount space to space be space written minus off space left parenthesis 2019 minus 20 right parenthesis equals fraction numerator 6 comma 00 comma 000 over denominator 20 comma 00 comma 000 end fraction cross times 1 comma 20 comma 000 equals Rs space 36 comma 000
