      offers a discount of 20% and still makes a profit of 25% on the cost price. Find the cost price of the shirt.

      B 1025 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 1335 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 1400 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      SP after discount = 2500 × (1 − 20/100) = 2500 × 0.80 = 2000 Profit = 25% of CP ⇒ SP = 1.25 × CP 1.25 × CP = 2000 ⇒ CP = 2000 / 1.25 = 1600
