    Explanation:

    - The original price of the computer is Rs. 18,000.

    - The selling price is Rs. 15,840.

    - To find the discount percentage:

    - Discount amount = Original price - Selling price = Rs. 18,000 - Rs. 15,840 = Rs. 2,160.

    - Discount percentage = (Discount amount / Original price) × 100.

    - Discount percentage = (2,160 / 18,000) × 100 = 12%.

    - Option 1: 13.6% - Not correct, as calculation shows 12%.

    - Option 2: 21.60% - Not correct, as calculation shows 12%.

    - Option 3: 12% - Correct answer.

    - Option 4: 21% - Not correct, as calculation shows 12%.
