anand marks up the price of an article by 50% and then allows a discount of 20% and sell it to balaji.balaji sells it for rs20 more than what he purchased for,this sp is 30%more than the original cp of the article.then what is balaji's profit?

  CP of Balaji = 100×150100×80100=120 units
  
  SP of Balaji = 130100×100=130 units
  
  Profit of Balaji = 130 - 120 = 10 units
  
  Profit percent = 10120×100
  
  = 8.33%

• Let original CP = 100 units
  
  CP of Balaji = 100×150/100×80/100=120 units
  
  SP of Balaji = 130/100×100=130 units
  
  Profit of Balaji = 130 - 120 = 10 units
  
  Profit percent = 10/120×100
  
  = 8.33%

• According to question he asked the balaji's profit.
  so profit will be the same 20 rs amount.
  Otherwise question has some mistake, maybe he was asking about profit percentage......
