let the cost be x
then the trader fix the price= x +x*20/100
=6x/5
now let the discount be y
so
6x/5- y = x + 8x/100
so
y=6x/5 -x- 8x/100
y= 12x/100
so
y=12/100 *x
y=12 percent ans

sg13360pa56k0: i think the ans is 10
ritaparashar1796: but how??? can you explain?
sg13360pa56k0: coz he marked the price from 100 to 120 and now he wants 8 % profit so on 120 he would give 10 % of discount so the 10% of 120 is 12 so 120 -12 =108 and so 8 % is the profit
ritaparashar1796: well i think u re right
