If on an item a shop gives 25% discount, they earn 25%
profit. If they now give 10% discount then what is the
profit percentage

Answer Posted / himanshu

let the market price be x.
and discount given on market price be 25%
therefore, s.p = 75% of x

but it is given ,
75%of x=25%
>>> x=1/3

now, 10% discount on market price.

therefore.s.p.=90%
90% of x=y%(as let new profit % be y%)
90/100 *1/3=y/100
==>>y=30%
