Step-by-step explanation:
Let marked price be Rs 100
Discount=Rs(
100
10
×100)=Rs 10
∴ Selling price Rs 90
Let east price beRs x
Profit=Rs
100
8x
∴ Selling Price Rs
100
108x
Now,
100
108x
=90
or, x=
108
90×100
=83.33
∴ Cost price=Rs 83.33
Amount masked above CP =Rs(100−83.33)
=416.67
∴ Percentage of masked price above CP
=
83.33
16.67
×100
=20%
