Offer 1 (Jeevan):
Discount = 30%
Effective price paid for a single item = 15000×(1−0.30)=Rs. 10,500.
Offer 2 (Rakshit):

30000
=Rs. 10,000.

Difference=10500−10000=Rs. 500
Discount = 30%
Effective price paid for a single item = 15000×(1−0.30)=Rs. 10,500.
Offer 2 (Rakshit):
"Buy two get one free" means the customer gets 3 items for the price of 2.
Total price paid for 3 items = 2×15000=Rs. 30,000.
Effective price paid per single item =
