Correct Answer: INR 3,360


Solution : Given, Selling Price = INR 19,040
Discount = 15%
We know, Selling price = $\frac{100-\text{Discount}\%}{100}×$ Marked price
$⇒19040=\frac{100-15}{100}×$ Marked price
$⇒$ Marked price $= \frac{19040×100}{85}$
$⇒$ Marked price $= 22400$
Discount = Marked price – Selling price = INR 22400 – INR 19040 = INR 3,360
Hence, the correct answer is INR 3,360.
