Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. ₹10,603.20.

Selling price = M.P. × 100−D1100×100−D2100×100−D3100\frac{100 - D_1}{100} × \frac{100 - D_2}{100} × \frac{100 - D_3}{100}

= 12,500 × 100−6100×100−6100×100−4100\frac{100 - 6}{100} × \frac{100 - 6}{100} × \frac{100 - 4}{100}

= 12500 × 9410094\over100 × 9410094\over100 × 9610096\over100 = ₹10,603.20
