Correct Answer: INR 3,000
Solution : Given, Discount = 12.5% and Selling price = 2625 Selling price = $\frac{100-\text{Discount}\%}{100}×\text{Marked price}$ ⇒ $2625 = \frac{100-12.5}{100}×\text{Marked price}$ $\therefore$ Marked price $=\frac{100×2625}{87.5}=3000$ Hence, the correct answer is INR 3,000.
