Question

The marked price of a table is rs1200, which is 20%above the coast price.it is sold at a discount of 10%on the marked price.dind the profit per cent

Answer 1

Ans.

The market price of the table = Rs 1200
Extra percentage over cost = 20%

So, cost price
= Rs {(1200 × 100)/(100+20)}
= Rs 1000

Discount on the market price = 10%

So, selling price
= [{(1200 × (100-10)}/100]
= Rs 1080

Hence, it was a profit of
Rs (1080 - 1000)
= Rs 80

So, the percentage of profit
= (80 × 100)/1000 %
= 8%

I HOPE THAT THIS HELPS YOU.

Answer 2

Answer:

8 % profit.

Explanation:

MP is 1200

MP is marked 20 % above CP i.e (1200/(1.2)) = 1000 CP

10% discount on MP is nothing but 90% of MP = 1080 SP

profit of 80 over 1000 that's 8 %
