Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Rs.8,651.

The marked price of a hair dryer = Rs.10,550

The shopkeeper offers a discount = 18%

Selling price = Marked price × (100 - Discount %)/100

The selling price = 10550 × (100 - 18)/100

= Rs 8651
