Answer 2

let say the marked price is Rs100
profit is 25℅

discount = marked price - selling price
= 125-100
=25
discount % = discount/marked price * 100
= 25/125* 100
= 20%


now if profit is reduced to 12.5%

profit = 100*12.5% = 12.5

sp = 100+112.5= 112.5

discount = mp-sp
=125-112.5
=12.50

disc℅ = 12.5/125* 100
= 10%
