Correct Answer: 12%


Solution : Given,
A mixer marked at Rs. 2,300 is sold for Rs. 2,024
Discount = Marked price - Selling price = 2300 – 2024 = Rs. 276
Now, discount percentage = $(\frac{\text{Discount}}{\text{Marked price}}) × 100$
= $\frac{276}{2300} × 100$
= 0.12 × 100 = 12%
Hence, the correct answer is 12%.
