A shopkeeper bought an item at 10% discount on its original price. He sold it at 35% increase on the original price. What percentage profit did he get ?

50%



Let the original price be 100.
After discount it is 100 - 10 = 90
He SELLS it on 35% PROFIT of original price.
So SP = 135
∴ % profit = 135-90/90 x 100 = 4500/90 = 50%
