Correct Answer :

Option D

4,904

Solution :

To find the selling price of the table, we can calculate it using the marked price and the discount percentage.

The given values are:
Marked Price (MP) = ₹5,980
Discount Percentage = 18%

The formula for the Selling Price (SP) after a discount is:
SP = MP × 1 - Discount Percentage 100

Substituting the given values into the formula:
SP = 5980 × 1 - 18 100
SP = 5980 × 1 - 0.18
SP = 5980 × 0.82

Now, we calculate the multiplication:
SP = 4903.6

Rounding off to the nearest rupee, we get:
SP 4904

Therefore, the selling price of the table is ₹4,904.
