Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven:
Original Price = ₹8,000
Decrease = 12%
Increase = 25%
Formula used:
New Price = Original Price × (1 - Decrease%) × (1 + Increase%)
Calculation:
New Price = 8000 × (1 - 12/100) × (1 + 25/100)
⇒ New Price = 8000 × (1 - 0.12) × (1 + 0.25)
⇒ New Price = 8000 × 0.88 × 1.25
⇒ New Price = ₹8800
∴ The correct answer is option (3).
