To calculate:

• Selling Price (S.P)

____________________________________

Calculation:

Here,

• MP = ₹ 4650

and,

• Discount = 18 % of M.P

$\therefore$ Discount = $\sf { \dfrac{18}{100} \times 4650}$

→ Discount = $\sf { Rs \: \dfrac{18}{10} \times 465}$

→ Discount = $\sf { Rs \: \dfrac{9}{5} \times 465}$

→ Discount = $\sf { Rs \: 9 \times 93 }$

→ Discount = Rs 837

Now, as we know that :

→ SP = Marked Price – Discount

→ SP = Rs ( 4650 – 837 )

→ SP = Rs 3813

Therefore, its selling price is Rs 3813.
