- +- (x) +- (y) +- (xy)/100 where + means profit,gain and - means Loss,Discount
Here, -10 - 12 -120/100 = -23.2% overall Discount

- For 10% discount=discount/250*100= 25
For 12%discount=discount /250*100=30
Selling price = markup price -discount=225 for 10% discount
S.p= m.p-discount =220
Total=225+220=445 so price of article =445-250=195 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(4)
