How to apply proportions? (Question:616956.0)

How did 45 X 1000 come?

Question:
A trader marks-up his goods by 80% and gives discount of 25%. Besides it he weighs 10% less amount while selling his goods. What is the net profit of trader?
Options:
A) 50%
B) 35%
C) 45%
D) 55%
Solution:
Ans: (a) 

Consider actual price of 1 g goods = Re. 1.
He sells the product equals to Rs. 90 only (10% less weighing)
Again MP = Rs.1.8 and SP = 1.35 for 1 g.
Thus he gives the goods worth Rs. 90 and charges Rs. 135 after 25% discount. 

Thus the profit % = [(135 - 90) / 90 ] x 100 
= 50%
