      Solution

      ATQ,


      Let the cost price, labelled price and selling price be Rs. 4x, Rs. 10x and Rs. 6x, respectively.

      Given,

      Profit = Selling Price - Cost Price = 6x - 4x = 2x

      So,

      2x = 240

      => x = 240 / 2 = 120

      Discount = Labelled Price - Selling Price = 10x - 6x = 4x = 4 × 120 = Rs. 480
