Question

aparna changes the marked price of an item to 50% above in CP. what % of discount allowed to gain 10% ?

Answer 1

Let the cost price = Rs 100

then, Marked price = Rs 150

Required gain = 10%,

So Selling price = Rs 110

Discount = 150 - 110 = 40

Discount% = (40/150)*100 = 80/3 = 26 2/3%
