Question 59

A trader marks his goods at 60% above the cost price and allows a discount of 25%. What is his gain percent?

Solution

Let the cost price of An article be Rs. 100.

Marked price = 160% of 100 = Rs. 160

Discount = 25%

Selling price = 160 $$\times \frac{75}{100} $$= Rs. 120

Gain = $$\frac{120 - 100}{100} \times 100 = 20%
