Correct Answer: 163.20


Solution : Marked price = Rs. 200
Successive discounts of 15% and 4% are given.
Selling price = Marked price × $\frac{100-D_1}{100}$×$\frac{100-D_2}{100}$ where D1 and D2 are two discount percentages.
⇒ Selling price = 200×$\frac{85}{100}$×$\frac{96}{100}$ = Rs. 163.2
The selling price of the toy is Rs. 163.20
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 163.20.
