1,200 more than the cost price. If the seller makes a profit of 30%, find the discount percentage given.Solution
ATQ,
Marked price of the article = Rs. 4,000
So, cost price of the article = 4000 – 1200 = Rs. 2,800
Selling price of the article = 1.30 × 2800 = Rs. 3,640
So, d = {(4000 – 3640)/4000} × 100 = 9%
Therefore, value of ‘d’ = 9
