Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

R = 19%

r = 15%

let's find percentage

$(r + R100 - r) \times 100(r + R100 - r) \times 100\% \\ = 15 + 19100 - 15 \times 100\% \\ = 34 \times 10085\% \\ 15 + 19100 \times 100\% \\ = 34 \times 10085\% \\ = 40\%$

Answer 2

$answer$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let \: CP = 100 \:

MP = x

Discount = 15%

SP = 119

Profit = 19

MP - Discount = SP

SP - CP = Profit

Plugging in values , x - 0.15x = 119

=> 0.85x = 119

=> x = 119/0.85 = 140

= 40/100 x 100 = 40%
