Please help me in solving this question....
Dear Student,
Solution)Let marked price = Rs . 100
Given discount is 20% , So
Selling price = 100 - 20% of 100
= 100 -

And trader gets 10% profit by selling at Rs 80 .
Let Cost price = x
So, x + 10% of x = 80
And new discount is 10%
New selling price = 100 - 10% of 100
= 100 -

= Rs .90
