Multiple Choice Question
A Trader Who Marks His Good Upto 50% And Offered Discount Of 20% . What % Profit The Trade Makes After Offering The Payment?
Explanation:
Sol. Let cp = 100, MRP = 150
\( sp = 150 \times {80 \over 100} \)
\( = Rs. 120 \)
Hence, Profit = 20%
[short trick:]
By successive formula
\( x+y+{xy \over 100} \)
\( 50-20+{50 \times (-20) \over 100} \)
30 – 10 = 20%
\( sp = 150 \times {80 \over 100} \)
\( = Rs. 120 \)
Hence, Profit = 20%
