    C ₹975 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D ₹965 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Marked price = ₹1200
    First discount = 15% of ₹1200 = ₹180
    Price after first discount = ₹1200 - ₹180 = ₹1020

    Second discount = 10% of ₹1020 = ₹102
    Price after second discount = ₹1020 - ₹102 = ₹918

    Selling price = ₹918
