B Correct answer
Explanation

Selling price = Marked price * (1 - discount). 728 = MP * (1 - 0.09) = MP * 0.91. MP = 728 / 0.91 = 800.

AI explanation

Using the marked price formula, the selling price equals the marked price multiplied by 100 minus the discount percentage divided by 100. The marked price equals 728 multiplied by 100 divided by 91. The marked price is 800.
