Answer»

Answer:

Let marked PRICE be x Rs.

Cost is 25% less than mp.And CP = 2400

x-x*25/100 = 2400.

x-x/4 =2400.

(4x-x)/4= 2400.

3x= 2400*4.

x= (2400*4)/3 = 800*4 = 3200 Rs.

2). Discount=15%.

MP.=3200Rs.

So SP= 3200-3200*15/100.

= 3200-480.

= 2720Rs.

3). Profit= Sp-Cp.

= 2720-2400.

= 320Rs.

Profit%= (profit/CP)×100.

= (320/2400)×100.

=13.33%

HOPE it helps.
