Correct Answer: INR 24,678.72
Solution : Price after 1st discount of 18% = 100% – 18% = 82% Price after 2nd discount of 12% = 82% – 0.12(82%) = 92% – 9.84% = 72.16% Price after 3rd discount of 5% = 72.16% – 0.05(72.16)% = 68.552% So, the selling price after three successive discounts = 68.552% of 36000 = $\frac{68.552}{100}\times 36000$ = $24,678.72$ Hence, the correct answer is INR 24,678.72.
