Option 'd' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Selling price = Rs. 170

Loss % = 15%

So, Cost price would be

\dfrac{100}{100-15}\times 170\\\\=\dfrac{100}{85}\times 170\\\\=Rs.\ 200

So, if gain % = 20%, then selling price would be

\dfrac{100+20}{100}\times 200\\\\=\dfrac{120}{100}\times 200\\\\=120\times 2\\\\=Rs.\ 240

Hence, Option 'd' is correct.
