If the price of a computer were reduced by 12 percent, which of the following could not be the final price of the computer? (Assume initial price to be integer in cents) Answers:
A) $844.10  B) $895.40  C) $1,053.80  D) $1,135.20  E) $1,262.80
Let X be the initial price of computer without discount   then price (final) after discount should be=X(1-12/100)-------&gt;X(22/25)=A(say)   means X=A*(25/22).....   so initial price to be integer(As per stem) final price must be multiple of 22   if we check options all were divisible by 22 except option (A)..which is Ans.   $844.10ns $844.10
