PLEASE ANSWER WITH PROPER STEPS​

Answer 1

Answer:

Cost Price (CP) = Rs.3750

Marked Price (MP) = 140% of CP = 140/100 × 3750 = Rs.5250

Discount = 10% of MP = 10/100 × 5250 = Rs.525

Selling Price (SP) = Rs.(5250-525) = Rs.4725

Profit = SP-CP = Rs.(4725-3750) = Rs.975

Profit % = Profit/CP × 100 = 975/3750 × 100 = 26%

Answer 2

Answer:

MP = 5250 SP = 4725 Profit% = 26%

Step-by-step explanation:

For CP = 3750

Marked price = CP( 100+40/100)

MP = 3750x(140/100)

MP = 5250

SP = 5250x[100-10]/100

SP = 5250x90/100 = 4725

Now profit = SP - CP = 4725-3750 = 975

% profit = (975/3750) x100 = 26%
