Question
An article is marked up by P% above the cost price. If
shopkeeper offers discount of 25% and still earns a profit of 35%. For earning a profit of 71%, how much discount should be offered by shopkeeper?Solution
Let MP = 100x, then SP = 75x CP × (135/100) = 75x CP = 500x/9 Now, 71% of profit is given in new CP. (500x/9) × (171/100) = SP new SP = 95x Therefore, D% = (100x – 95x)/100 × 100 = 5%
