    Solution

    ATQ,


    Let the cost price, labelled price and selling price be Rs. 4x, Rs. 10x and Rs. 6x, respectively.

    Given,

    Profit = Selling Price - Cost Price = 6x - 4x = 2x

    So,

    2x = 240

    => x = 240 / 2 = 120

    Discount = Labelled Price - Selling Price = 10x - 6x = 4x = 4 × 120 = Rs. 480
