)×100
Calculation:
Let the cost price of 50 g be ₹ 100 .
Selling price of 50 g at a 10% loss = ₹ 100−10% of ₹ 100
‌⇒‌ S.P. ‌=₹100−₹10
‌⇒‌ S.P. ‌=₹90
But dealer uses 40 g instead of 50 g , so he sells 40 g at ₹90.
‌ Cost price of ‌40g=‌

100

50

×40=₹80
Profit = S.P. - C.P.
‌⇒‌ Profit ‌=‌ ₹90 - ₹80 ‌
‌⇒‌ Profit ‌=‌ ₹10 ‌
Profit Percentage =(‌
