Question

By selling an article for rs 1170 a man allowed 10% discount and earn 30%profit. If the article is sold at 0%discount. What should be the profit

Answer 1

Answer:

profit will be 195 rs when 0% discount is given

Step-by-step explanation:

Given S.P(selling price)

=1170

let C.P(cost price)=x

discount given =10%of x=x×10/100=x/10

profit =30%of x=x×30/100=3x/10

now according to question

S.P=C.P- discount +profit

1170=x-x/10+3x/10

1170×10 =(10x-x+3x)×10/10

11700=12x

x=975

so if no discount is given then profit will be

S.P=C.P+profit

1170=975+profit

profit =1170-975=195
