C Correct answer
Explanation

If the discount is 25%, the cost paid is 75% of the original selling price. Let original price be S. 0.75 * S = 4875. S = 4875 / 0.75 = 6500.

AI explanation

Rajendra bought the mobile for Rs. 4,875, which is the price after a 25 percent discount, meaning he paid 75 percent of the original selling price. Using the base value formula, the original selling price equals 4875 divided by 0.75. Calculating this gives Rs. 6,500 as the original selling price.
