Option 1: 33.33%

Option 2: 25%

Option 3: 30%

Option 4: 20%

Team Careers360 15th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 33.33%


Solution : Let the selling price be $100x$.
The article is sold at $\frac{9}{10}$th of its usual selling price, and a 20% profit is made.
Then the new selling price = $\frac{9}{10} \times 100x = 90x$
Selling price = $\frac{100+ Profit\%}{100}×$ cost price
⇒ $90x$ = $\frac{100+20}{100}
