      Question

      An article has a cost price of Rs. 8,500. It is marked

      up by 45% above its cost price and is sold after a discount of Rs. 1,700. What is the percentage profit earned on the sale of the article?
      A 16% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 20% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 25% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 30% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Marked price of article = 1.45 X 8,500 = Rs. 12,325 Selling price of article = 12,325 - 1,700 = Rs. 10,625 So, profit earned = [(10,625 - 8,500) Γ· 8,500] X 100 = (2,125/8,500) X 100 = 25%
