C.P. = Rs.80, M.P.= Rs. 120, Discount = 40%
∴ S.P. = 60% of Rs.120=
60/100×120
=72
∴ Loss = Rs.80 - Rs.72 = Rs.8

Answer:
Correct Question: A man buys an article for Rs 80 and marks it at Rs 120. He then allows a discount of 40 percent. What is the loss or gain percent ?
Given:
A man bought an article for Rs 80.
He marked article at Rs 120.
Discount percent allowed by him on article is 40%.
To Find:
What is his gain or loss percent ?
Solution: Here we have
C.P = Rs 80
M.P = Rs 120
Since, discount percent is 40%. Therefore,
➟ Selling Price = (100 – 40)% of M.P
➟ 60% of 120
➟ 60/100 × 120
➟ 60 × 12/10
➟ 6 × 12
➟ Rs 72
On comparing S.P & C.P
C.P > S.P {Here is loss}
As we know that
★ Loss = C.P – S.P ★
★ Loss % = Loss/C.P × 100 ★
⟹ Loss = Rs (80 – 72)
⟹ Rs 8
⟹ Loss % = 8/80 × 100
⟹ 800/80
⟹ 10 %
Hence, his loss percent is 10 %.
