Certainly! Let's break down the scenario and calculate the final percentage of the marked price paid by Suresh.

- Suresh paid 40% of the marked price in cash.

- On this portion, he received a 20% discount.

- Calculating cash payment: 40% of marked price x (1 - 0.20) = 32% of marked price.

- Suresh paid the remaining 60% using a credit card.

- There was a 0.5% charge on this amount.

- Calculating credit card payment: 60% of marked price x (1 + 0.005) = 60.3% of marked price.

- Adding both parts gives: 32% + 60.3% = 92.3% of the marked price.

- Correct Answer: Option 4 - 92.3%
