A shopkeeper marks his goods 25% above the cost price and allows
a discount of 12% on them what percent does he gain?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the C.P. of the goods be Rs.100

Then M.P. of the goods = Rs.125,

Discount = 10%

∴ S.P. of the goods = 90% of Rs.125 =

100

90

×Rs.125=Rs.112.5

∴ Gain % =

100

(112.5−100)

×100=12.5%
