Solution

The correct option is B 12.5
Let the list price be Rs. 100x.
Profit = Rs. 20x
Cost price = Rs. 80x
Hence, the profit percentage after 10% discount = 90x80x80x×10012.5

माना कि अंकित मूल्य रु. 100x है।
लाभ = रु. 20x
क्रयमूल्य = रु. 80x
अत:, 10% छूट के बाद लाभ का प्रतिशत = 90x80x80x×10012.5
