Correct Answer: 26%
Solution : Let the cost price be Rs. 100. Ramlal marks up his goods by 40%. So, marked price = (100 + 40) = Rs. 140 Now, he gives a discount of 10% on the marked price. So, selling price $=\frac{90 × 140}{100} = 126$ Thus, the profit percentage = $\frac{(126 – 100)}{100}$ × 100 = 26% Hence, the correct answer is 26%.
