27 pence

Explanation:

From the question, we are given the information that a company share was exchanged at 36 pence per share on the stock exchange on the 6th Oct. 2014 and that 25% of the value was wiped out from the share in the next day trading which was 7th Oct.2014.

The new share price will be gotten by deducting 25% of 36 pence from the former value which is 36 pence. This will be:

= 36p - (25% × 36p)

= 36p - (0.25 × 36p)

= 36p - 9p

= 27p

The new share price is 27 pence.
