If on an item a company gives 25% discount, they earn 25% profit. If they now give 10% discountthen what is the profit percentage.

• 80%
  Let take m.p = 200
  Company give 25% discount = 50/- so the S.p = 150/-
  Still get 50% profit , c.p = 100/-
  
  Now the company discount is 10% the s.p = 180/-
  Profit = 80/100*100 = 80%

• assume
  marked price of item = 100
  after discount it will be sold = 75
  therefore cost price = sp*125/100 = 75*100/125=60
  
  now
  if discount=10%
  then sp=90
  profit = 90-60 = 30;
  
  profit % = 30/60*100 = 50%
  
  answer = 50%.
