20%------30600.
15%-------?.
20 = 4.
15 = 3.
30600/4 = 7650.
7650*3 = 22950.

If we see the chart there is clearly mentioned about the partition of printing i.e 20% and also according to the question the cost of printing is 30,600
so, we can equate 20% to 30,600
therefore, 20%=30,600
1%=30,600/20
then,15%(i.e of loyality which we have to calaculate)=( (30,600*15)/20
Ans. will be 22,950 i.e option 'C'
so, we can equate 20% to 30,600
therefore, 20%=30,600
1%=30,600/20
then,15%(i.e of loyality which we have to calaculate)=( (30,600*15)/20
Ans. will be 22,950 i.e option 'C'

20----->30600.
15----->?.
20*? = 30600*15.
? = 30600*15/20.
= 22950 than possible this processes.
15----->?.
20*? = 30600*15.
? = 30600*15/20.
= 22950 than possible this processes.
