The marked price of brand A watches is 15% higher than its original price. Due to increased in demand, the price is further increased by 10%. How much profit will be obtained in selling the watches?
Correct Answer: 26.5%
Explanation:
Given that, a = 15% and b = 10%
According to the formula,
Required profit = a + b + (ab/100) %
= 15 + 10 + (15 x 10)/100 %
= (25 + 1.5)%
= 26.5%
= 26.5%
