      its cost price and then sold it after applying three successive discounts of 20%, 20%, and 25%. Calculate the profit or loss percentage Ravi incurred in this transaction.
      A 10% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 8% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 28% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 12% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Let the cost price of the item = Rs. 100 So the marked price of the item = 100 × 2.25 = Rs. 225 So the selling price of the item = 225 × 0.80 × 0.80 × 0.75 = Rs. 108 So the profit percent = {(108 – 100)/100} × 100 = 8%
