Answer:

252, 585, 6750

Explanation:

We have to think that the regular price represents 100% and we need 10 of 10% to make an 100%. So if we divide the regular price by 10 will get our 10%.

i) A CFL bulb if the marked price is Rs. 280

10 % of 280 is 280/10 = 28

discounted price is 280 -28 = 252

ii) A bunion if the marked price is Rs. 650.

10 % of 650 is 650/10 = 65

discounted price is 650 -65 = 585

iii) A gas cooker if the marked price is Rs. 7500

10 % of 7500 is 7500/10 = 750

discounted price is 7500 -750 = 6750
