Correct Answer: 39191
Solution : S sells an item costing Rs. 37800 to P with 8% profit. Buying price for P $=\frac{100+8}{100}×37800=\frac{108}{100}×37800=40824$ Now, P sells the item to Q with a 4% loss. $\therefore$ Selling price for P $=\frac{100-4}{100}×40824=\frac{96}{100}×40824=39191.04\approx39191$ Hence, the correct answer is 39191.
