A merchant was selling an item at a certain price, then marked it down 20% for spring sale. During the summer, he marked the item down another 20% from its spring price. If the item was sold at the summer price, what percent of the original price did it sell for?

Let the original price of the item was Tk. 100
Discount offered for spring sale = 20%
Therefore, the selling price of the item in the spring = 100 - 20 = 80 tk
The merchant gives another 20% discount on this for summer season
Therefore, the selling price in the summer season = 80 - 80 × 20/100
= 80 - 16 = 64 tk
Now, selling price/Original price = 64/100 = 64%
Therefore, the selling price is 64% of the original price.
