    B Rs 1632 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Rs 1879 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Rs 1567 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Original Price = ₹2400, First Discount = 20% Second Discount = 15% 20% of ₹2400 = (20/100) × 2400 = ₹480 Price after first discount = 2400 - 480 = ₹1920 15% of ₹1920 = (15/100) × 1920 = ₹288 Price after second discount = 1920 - 288 = ₹1632 Final Selling Price = ₹1632
