If a discount of 10% is given on the marked price, the gain is 30%. Find the gain if the discount is 25%

a) 8.33%
b) 15%
c) 12%
d) 18%

• The answer will be 8.33%
  Let marked price = 100
  discount= 10%
  Selling price=(100-10)=90
  Given gain = 30%
  Cost price=(100/130)*90=69.23
  now given discount=25%
  S.P.=75
  Gain%=((S.P.-C.P.)/C.P.)*100
  =((75-69.23)/69.23)*100
  =(8.33%)Ans

• with 10% discount on price x we get 0.9x=1.3y
  similarly with 25% discount we get 0.75x=b*y
  by finding ratios we get b=108.33
  subtracting 100 we get gain as 8.33%

• ans is 15%
  let us consider that the mrp is 100 then after discount of 10% it will be 90. the gain is 30% i.e. 30 rs so the actual was 60.
  after discount of 25% , the cost become 75.
  so the profit is (75-60)*100/100 = 15%
