cp = 1500
discount = (1-20/100) = 80/100
let printed price be x
aftr discont = 80x/100
gain = 120x/100
120x/100 - 80x/100 = 1500
40x/100 = 1500
x= 1500 * 100/40
x = 3750
discount = (1-20/100) = 80/100
let printed price be x
aftr discont = 80x/100
gain = 120x/100
120x/100 - 80x/100 = 1500
40x/100 = 1500
x= 1500 * 100/40
x = 3750
