    E)  Other than those given as options

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Marked price of goods = Rs. 100 \[\Rightarrow \]\[SP=Rs.\,\,80\] According to the question, in 1st case CP of goods \[=80\times \frac{100}{125}=Rs.\,\,64\] In 2nd case SP of goods = 100 - 10 = Rs. 90 \[\therefore \]Percentage profit\[=\frac{90-64}{64}\times 100\] \[=\frac{26}{64}\times 100=\frac{325}{8}=40\frac{5}{8}%\]
