Question

if A shopkeeper goods cost price is 20% profit and he is sold goods with 5% discount then what is profit he gain?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s.p be x

C.p = y

0.8 x = 1.25 y

X/ y = o.8 /1.25

X = .64 y

S.p is equal

Answer 2

Let profit is 100

20% of profit is cost price

20% of 100= 20

Sale price= cost price+ profit

Sale price = 20+100 = 120

Discount on goods 5%

5% of 120= 6

After discount sale price= 120-6 = 114

Now, profit gain

100*(SALE PRICE- COST PRICE)/ COST PRICE

=(114-20/20)*100

=(94/20)*100

=470% profit gain
