Question

When a discount of 50% is given on a shirt, the profit is 25%. If the discount is 10%, then the profit is

A) 35 percent B) 55 percent C) 215 percent D) 125 percent

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the price without any discount be x

So when 50% discount is given x-0.5x=0.5x is the selling rate

Since it made a profit of 25% the price with no profit=0.5x-0.25x=0.25x

0.25x is the original price without profit

When 10% discount is given x-0.1x=0.9x is the the selling price

since 0.25x is original price

Profit%=(SP-OP)P *100=0.65x*100/x=65%
