Question

A shopkeeper allows a discount of 25% on the written price. How much per cent
above the cost price must he mark his goods so as to make a profit of 20%?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

lets take c.p. = 100 rs.

profit = 20%

so s.p. = 120rs.

Marked price - discount = s.p.

M.P. x (75/100) = 120

M.P. = 160 rs.

so he should mark m.p. 60% above the c.p.
