A trader sold an article at a loss of 5% but when he increased the selling price by Rs.65 he gained 3.33% on the cost price. If he sells the same article at Rs. 936, what is the profit percentage?

Correct Answer: 20%

Explanation:

103.33 CP- 0.95 CP = 65


 


 CP = Rs. 780 


 


profit (%) = (936 - 780)/780  x 100 = 20%
