Answer : 4. "13.742% gain"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 13.742% gain Explanation: Let CP = 100,42 % increase => SP = 14210 % discount in SP => ((142 x 10)/100) = 14.2So 1st SP = (142 - 14.2) = 127.8, again 12 % discount in 1st SP ((127.8 x 11)/100) = 14.0582nd SP = (127.8 - 14.058) = 113.742, So finally CP = 100, SP = 113.742, => gain = 13.742%.
