Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. ₹3,900.

Selling price of 5 devices = ₹14,430

Discount = 26%, so selling price = 74% of marked price

Let marked price of one device = x

Then, 5 × 0.74x = 14,430

⇒ 3.7x = 14,430

⇒ x = 14,430 ÷ 3.7 = ₹3,900
