Answer 2

Answer:

33.33%                        

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept= Profit and Loss

Given= Profit% of one stage, Selling price of two stages

To find= Profit% of second stage

Explanation=

Since we have the Initial Selling Price and the Profit% we will first find the Cost Price of the article: [(100%+ Profit%)/(100%) ] * Cost Price = Selling Price

here,  125%/100% * x(Cost Price) = 120

Therefore, x= (120*100)/125 = 24*4= 96

we get CP= 96rs

Selling Price= 128rs. So, Profit% on this= [(Selling Price-Cost Price)/Cost Price] * 100

so we get: [(128-96)/96]*100= 100/3=33.33%

Therefore Profit/Gain% if Article is sold for 128rs is 33.33%
