Answer:

If A directly sold that articles to D then he get 1.575 times of price of article.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey Mate,

Given Data,

A sells some articles to B at 5% Profit. ( 105% of total )

B sells the same to C at 20% Profit. ( 120% of B )

C sells the same to D at 25% Profit. ( 125% of C )

If A directly sale that article to D.

Then,

= > X × ( 105/ 100 ) × ( 120 / 100 ) × ( 125 / 100 )

= > X × ( 1575000 / 1000000 )

= > 1.575 X

If A directly sold that articles to D then he get 1.575 times of price of article.
