Answer:
Let Market price be 100
After giving 25percent discount , selling price = 100-25*100/100 = 75
By selling the article at Rs 75, there is a gain of 20%.
This gain of 20% is on the cost price of article
Let cost price be Rs x
So, x+( 20/100) *x = 75
6x/5 = 75
x = Rs 62.5
So, if the article is sold at market price , profit = 100-62.5 = 37.5
Profit percent = 37.5/62.5 *100 = 60%
