marked price-discount= selling price-profit=cost price

selling price= (100+ profit%) of cp

Answer / sachin kumar

Let written price = $100
Discount = 25% of 100 = $25
Selling price = $100 - $25 = $75

Discount = 10% of $100 = $10
Selling price = $100 - $10 = $90

Selling price $75 gives 25% profit
Therefore selling price $90 gives
25/75 * 90 = 30% profit
