A Correct answer
Explanation

Cost price = 3750. Marked price = 3750 * 1.4 = 5250. Selling price = 5250 * (1 - 0.08) = 5250 * 0.92 = 4830.

AI explanation

The cost price is Rs. 3,750, and the marked price is 40 percent above the cost price, which is 3750 multiplied by 1.40, equaling Rs. 5,250. The selling price is calculated after an 8 percent discount on this marked price, giving 5250 multiplied by 0.92, which equals Rs. 4,830.
