Correct Answer: INR 675
Solution : Let the marked price be $x$. Selling price after 22.5% discount = $\frac{x\times(100-22.5)}{100}$ According to the question, $\frac{77.5}{100}x=2325$ ⇒ $x=3000$ Discount = 22.5% of marked price = $\frac{22.5}{100}×3000$ = INR 675 Hence, the correct answer is INR 675.
