Answer»

Let marked price be M.

The marked price of an ITEM is Rs. 40 more than the selling price. The cost price of this item is 5/8th of marked price.

⇒ Selling price = M – 40

And, cost price = 5M/8

Profit percentage = 50%

Selling price = Cost Price × (1 + Profit Percentage/100)

⇒ M - 40 = 5M/8 × (1 + 50/100)

⇒ 8M – 320 = 7.5M

⇒ M = 320/0.5 = 640

We KNOW, Selling price = Marked price × (1 – DISCOUNT percentage/100)

⇒ 640 – 40 = 640 × (1 - Discount percentage/100)

⇒ Discount percentage = 100 × (1 – 600/640) = 6.25%
