D Correct answer
Explanation

A 10% discount on Rs. 62 is calculated as 0.10 * 62 = 6.2. Subtracting this from the marked price gives 62 - 6.2 = 55.80.

AI explanation

The price paid by the customer is the marked price minus the 10% discount, calculated as Marked Price times (1 - 0.10). For a marked price of Rs. 62, the calculation is 62 times 0.90. This results in a final price of Rs. 55.80.
