Correct Answer: Rs 452


Solution : The discount is given as 28% of the marked price.
Discount = $\frac{28}{100}$ × Marked Price = $\frac{28}{100}$×1600 = 448
Selling price = Marked price − Discount = 1600 − 448 = 1152
Profit = Selling price − Cost price = 1152 − 700 = 452
Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 452.
