Correct answer: (C) 23%23%

Explanation

Marked price = 324 ÷ 0.72 = ₹ 450. With 18% discount, SP = 450 × 0.82 = ₹ 369. Profit = 369 − 300 = ₹ 69, i.e. 69/300 × 100 = 23%.अंकित मूल्य = 324 ÷ 0.72 = ₹ 450। 18% छूट पर विक्रय मूल्य = 450 × 0.82 = ₹ 369। लाभ = 369 − 300 = ₹ 69, अर्थात 69/300 × 100 = 23%।
