Option C —
₹ 570
1. Identify the given information:Discount percentage: 5%
Discount amount: ₹ 302.
Calculate the Marked Price (MP):The discount is calculated as a percentage of the marked price.
Let the marked price be x.
5% { of } x = 30
{5}\{100} times x = 30
x = 30 times 100\{5}
x = 6 \times 100 = 600
So, the Marked Price of the article is ₹ 600.3
Calculate the amount paid (Selling Price):The amount paid is the marked price minus the discount.
{Amount Paid} = {Marked Price} - {Discount Amount}
{Amount Paid} = 600 - 30 = 570
Final Result: Mohan paid ₹ 570 for the article.
