Answer 2

Answer:

percentage difference of selling price = 6.25 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the MP be x

SP after discount = 20%

SP = $x- \frac{20}{100}x$ = $\frac{80}{100}x$

new SP after discount = 25%

new SP = $x- \frac{25}{100}x$ = $\frac{75}{100}x$

percentage difference of selling price = $\frac{\frac{80}{100} - \frac{75}{100} }{\frac{80}{100} } * 100$

percentage difference of selling price = $\frac{\frac{5}{100} }{\frac{80}{100} } * 100$ = $\frac{500}{80}$ % = 6.25 %
