Correct Answer: Rs. 9,720
Solution : Single discount of 20% and 10% = $20 + 10 - \frac{20\times 10}{100} = 28\%$ Now single discount of 20%, 10%, and 10% = $28 + 10 - \frac{28\times 10}{100} = 35.2\%$ SP of the piano = $15000×\frac{100\:–\:35.2}{100}$ = Rs. 9,720 Hence, the correct answer is Rs. 9,720.
