Answer 1

Answer:

4195.2 Rs

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the cost price of defective watch = 4800 Rs

and loss percentage = 8 %

Let the selling price of defective watch = x

Then,

x = marked price - loss

x = 4800 - 8 % of 4800

x = 4800 - 384

x = 4416 Rs

And further reduced price by 5 %

Then the final selling price = 4416 - 5 % of 4416

= 4416 - 220.8

= 4195.2 Rs
