Step-by-step explanation:

CP = 100/120 = 10/12 [Since, he purchases 120 g and pays Rs. 100, by assumption actual CP of 1 g = Re. 1]

SP = 135/90 = 3/2 = 18/15 [Since, Actual MP = 180 as he mark Up 80% above, SP = 135, with 25% discount and he sells 90 g instead of 100g]

Percentage Profit = {[(18/12) - (10/12)] /(10/12)} *100 = 80%.
