Answer:

Here above is the answer

Answer 2

lead selling price of an article be rs.100

MRP of an article is rs.125

CP of an article is rs.125(1-40/100)

=rs.125×60/100

rs.75

discount = MRP-SP=RS.(125-100)=RS.75

THEREFORE, DISCOUNT PERCENTAGE=25/125×100=20

PROFIT =SP - CP RS.(100-75)=RS. 25

PROFIT%= 25/75×100=33.3333%
