The marked price of an article is 50% more than its cost price. If a discount of 10% is given, then what is the profit percentage?
Let cost price of the article = Rs. $$100$$
=> Marked price = $$100+(\frac{50}{100}\times100)$$
= $$100+50=Rs.$$ $$150$$
Discount % = 10%
=> Selling price = $$150-(\frac{10}{100}\times150)$$
= $$150-15=Rs.$$ $$135$$
$$\therefore$$ Profit % = $$\frac{(135-100)}{100}\times100=35\%$$
=> Ans - (C)
