fill in the blank with an appropriate word!​

Answer 1

The jewel was sold at thrice its cost price.

Explanation:

• We have to fill the blank with an appropriate word. We use a Preposition here.
• 'At' is used before the exact time identifier words, and also to specify small places.
• However we always use 'at' after the Principal Verb 'sell'.
• Examples: This cloth sells at six rupees a yard.
