Explanation

Selling price = 18000 * 0.90 * 0.95 * 0.98 = 18000 * 0.8379 = 15082.20.

AI explanation

The net selling price after successive discounts is found by multiplying the marked price by the remaining percentage multipliers: (1 - 0.10), (1 - 0.05), and (1 - 0.02). For a marked price of Rs. 18000, the calculation is 18000 times 0.90 times 0.95 times 0.98. This equals 18000 times 0.8379, resulting in a net selling price of Rs. 15082.20.
