a seller sells his goods at a profit of 20%.find the profit of the seller if he also cheats his customer by a false weight of 250 grams

• let 1kg good cost price (price at which the seller bought ) = 100
  selling price , sp = 100 + 0.2 *100= 120
  now this he sells only for 750 g = 120
  1kg = 120/0.75 = 160
  
  so the new profit percent will be
  = (160-100)*100/100 = 60%

• let x is the cost price
  then the selling price will be 1.2x
  if he sells 750 grams means (1*3/4)=0.75 quantity of good at 1.2x rupeees then
  he sells 1000 or 1 quantity of good at (1.2x*4/3)=1.6x rupess
  so total profit=60%
