Detailed Explanation & Answer
Suppose, Article original CP = 100
Rohan buy it with 25% discount.
It means he bought it for = 100 x 75/100 = 75
Rohan has to seel it for 25% profit over original CP = 100 x 125/100 = 125

It means New CP = 75
New SP = 125
Profit = 125 - 75 = 50
Profit % over new CP = 50 x 100 / 75 = 66.67
मान लीजिए, वस्तु का मूल क्रय मूल्य = 100
रोहन ने इसे 25% छूट पर खरीदा।
इसका मतलब है कि उसने इसे = 100 x 75/100 = 75 में खरीदा।
रोहन को इसे मूल क्रय मूल्य से 25% लाभ पर बेचना है = 100 x 125/100 = 125

इसका मतलब है कि नया क्रय मूल्य = 75
नया विक्रय मूल्य = 125
लाभ = 125 - 75 = 50
नए क्रय मूल्य से लाभ % = 50 x 100 / 75 = 66.67
