The correct Answer is:
To find the selling price of the TV after applying the discount series, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the List Price The list price (also known as the marked price) of the TV is given as Rs. 2300. ### Step 2: Calculate the First Discount The first discount is 25%. To calculate the selling price after the first discount, we can use the formula: \[ \text{Selling Price after 1st Discount} = \text{List Price} \times (1 - \text{First Discount Rate}) \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{Selling Price after 1st Discount} = 2300 \times (1 - 0.25) = 2300 \times 0.75 \] Calculating this: \[ \text{Selling Price after 1st Discount} = 2300 \times 0.75 = 1725 \] ### Step 3: Calculate the Second Discount Now, we apply the second discount of 10% on the new selling price (Rs. 1725). Using the same formula: \[ \text{Selling Price after 2nd Discount} = \text{Selling Price after 1st Discount} \times (1 - \text{Second Discount Rate}) \] Substituting the values: \[ \text{Selling Price after 2nd Discount} = 1725 \times (1 - 0.10) = 1725 \times 0.90 \] Calculating this: \[ \text{Selling Price after 2nd Discount} = 1725 \times 0.90 = 1552.5 \] ### Step 4: Final Selling Price The final selling price of the TV after applying both discounts is Rs. 1552.5. ### Summary The selling price of the TV after applying a series of discounts of 25% and 10% on the list price of Rs. 2300 is Rs. 1552.5. ---
