The marked price of an article is Rs. 40. If its cost price is Rs. 24 and the discount percent offered on marked price is numerically equal to its profit percent then its selling price in Rs. is1). 372). 253). 204). 30

Answer»

let the discount OFFERED be ‘d’ PERCENT

Selling price = 40 × (100 – d)/100

S.P – C.P = C.P × Profit percent

[40 × (100 – d)/100] – 24 = 24 × d/100

? discount % = profit %

4000 – 40d – 2400 = 24d

1600 = 64d

∴ d = 25%

∴ Selling price = 40 × 0.75 = Rs. 30
