25​

Answer 1

Answer:

24.4% loss

Step-by-step explanation:

let the marked price be 100

after 10% discount price is 90

this 90 is 25%more than actual price

then let the actual price be X

$x + x \times 25 \div 100 = 90$

$x = 72$

we have the actual price 72

now if the SP(100) is reduced 50%

then it would be 50

now there is loss of 72-50=22rupees

then find loss %

$22 \div 72 \times 100 = 24.44\%$
