solution not clear (Question: 107807.0 )

is there any other method for solving these type of questions ?

Question:

A trader sells goods to his customer at a profit of K% over the cost price, besides it he cheats his customer by giving 880 gm instead of 1 kg. Thus, his overall profit percent is 25%. Find the value of K.

Options:
A) 8.33%
B) 8.25% 
C) 10% 
D) 12.5%
Solution:
Ans: (c) 



Alternate:


Let C.P. of 1000g = Rs. 1000
Profit % = K %
Profit = K/100 x 1000 = Rs.10 K
He then cheats his customer by giving 880g only instead of 1kg,
So, C.P of 880g = Rs. 880
S.P. of 880g = 1000 + 10K
Profit % = [ ( 1000 + 10K - 880 ) / 880 ] x 100 = 25
K = 10%
