उत्तर

\[\text { Marked price of the table fan = Rs } . 480\]

\[\text { Discount = 25 %  }\]

\[\text { Therefore, cost price = 25 % of Rs } . 480\]

\[\frac{25}{100} \times 480 = Rs . 360\]

\[\text { It is given that the profit on the table fan is 15 % } . \]

\[\text { Gain % } = \frac{\text { Gain }}{CP} \times 100\]

\[15 = \frac{\text { Gain }}{360} \times 100\]

\[\text  {Gain = Rs } . 54\]

\[\text { Gain = SP - CP }\]

\[54 = SP - 360\]

\[SP = Rs . 414\]

\[\text { Thus, the retailer will sell the table fan for Rs } . 414 .\]
