A Correct answer
Explanation

Let marked price be M. Selling price = M * (1 - 0.16) = 0.84 * M. Given 0.84 * M = 1680, so M = 1680 / 0.84 = 2000.

AI explanation

The selling price is the marked price after a 16% discount, meaning the selling price is 84% of the marked price. Setting up the equation, 0.84 * Marked Price = 1680. Dividing 1680 by 0.84 gives the marked price of 2000 rupees.
