A cell phone was marked at 20% above the cost price and a discount of 10% was given on its marked price. What is the profit percentage? |
10% 8% 11% 9% |
8% |
Let the cost price = 100 Markup = 20% So the Marked price = 120 Discount = 10% So, the selling price = 120 × \(\frac{90}{100}\) = 108 So the profit = 108 - 100 = 8 Profit% = 8 × \(\frac{100}{100}\) = 8% |
