Correct Answer: INR 6,000
Solution : Profit = INR 800 Profit percentage = 20% of the cost price 20% of the cost price = INR 800 ⇒ Cost price = $\frac{800}{0.2}$ = INR 4000 Selling price = Cost price + Profit = 4000 + 800 = INR 4800 Discount = 20% of marked price ⇒ 80% of marked price = INR 4800 ⇒ Marked price = $\frac{4800}{0.8}$ = INR 6000 Hence, the correct answer is INR 6000.
