Correct Answer: Rs. 180000


Solution : Given: 1st discount = 8%
If he gives a discount of 4%, he gains = Rs. 7200
Difference in discount = 8% – 4% = 4%
Difference in price = Rs. 7200
Now,
⇒ $\frac{4}{100}$th of Marked price $=7200$
$\therefore$ Marked price of the Car = 180000
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 180000.
