- its 16.66%
cp: 120m for 100rs
i.e. cp for 1m=5/6rs
sp: 80m for 100 rs
i.e. sp for 1m =5/4 rs
profit=sp-cp=5/4-5/6=5/12
giving 20% discount on sp
discont=20/100*5/4=1/4
sp=5/4-1/4=1 rs per m
profit = sp-cp=1-5/6=1/6
profit %=100/6=16.66 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(3)
- its 20%
let CP of 1m= x and he purchases 80 m cloth
so total CP= 80x
20% discount on CP = 16x (20% of 80x)
Now SP of 120m cloth will be = 80x-16x= 64x
and SP of 120 cm cloth will be = (64*120)/80x =96x
profit % = [(SP-CP)*100]/CP
= [96x-80x)*100]/80x
=20
