Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Discount = 25% of 100 = 25. Sale price = 100 - 25 = 75.

AI explanation

The sale price is calculated by subtracting the discount amount from the marked price using the formula: sale price equals marked price multiplied by 1 minus the discount percentage divided by 100. Substituting the given values gives 100 multiplied by 1 minus 0.25, which equals 100 multiplied by 0.75. The sale price of the book is Rs. 75.
