    A man bought an article at 20% less of the marked

    price and sold it at 10% more than the marked price. Find the profit earned by him.
    A 33.3% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 37.5% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 31.3% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 36.3% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the marked price be Rs. 100
    ∴ cost price = 100 - 20 = 80
    And, selling price = 100 + 10 = 110
    Profit = 110 - 80 = 30
    Profit % = 30/80 x 100 = 37.5%
