If on an item a shop gives 25% discount, they earn 25%
profit. If they now give 10% discount then what is the
profit percentage

Answer Posted / vasu

if we consider cost price as 100,they made 25%profit with
25%dis. means if they sold at 125 to customer with 25%
discount.It means its MRP is 500/3 i.e.

100---75
x----125

so x=500/3 and 10% of it is 50/3 means 500/3-50/3=150
so profit is 50%
