Explanation:

clearly, the price is marked down to $9.60.

so, the 1st and 4th answer options are wrong.

is it marked down by 12% or by 20% ?

the basic price was $12. = 100%

how much are 10% of that ? well, 12/10 = $1.20.

but we marked down by $2.40.

when you compare $1.20 and $2.40, what do to see ?

that the second number is exactly twice the first number.

10%×2 = 20%

therefore, the 3rd answer is correct.
