      the cost price and selling price of the item by 20% and 10%, respectively, from their original values. What is the percentage profit he makes after these adjustments?
      A 37.2% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 42.5% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 40.6% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 45.8% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 35.5% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let, original cost price be Rs. тАШxтАЩ. So, original selling price = 125% of x = Rs. 1.25x New cost price = 80% of x = Rs. 0.8x New selling price = 90% of 1.25x = Rs. 1.125x So, new profit percentage = {(1.125x тАУ 0.8x)/0.8x} ├Ч 100 = 40.6%
