Answer:
$\$1139$

Explanation:

Given

The original cost of the laptop is
$\$1340$

A sale of 15% is applicable on it

The buyer has to pay 15% less

So, the effective price of the laptop is

$\Rightarrow 1340-15\%* 1340\\\Rightarrow 1340(1-0.15)\\\Rightarrow 1340* 0.85\\\Rightarrow \$1139$

So, the final price of the laptop is
$\$1139$ .
