A trader allows a discount of 10% on listed price. How much above the cost price he must mark to make a profit of 20%.

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Let the marked price be x
Let the cost price be 100
Then the selling price = 100 + 20
Given that the dealer allows the discount of 10% on the marked price.
90% of x = 120
90/100 * x = 120
x = 12000/90
x = 133.33
Therefore the Marked price is 331/3% above the cost price.
