The price of an article was cut by 40% for sale. By what percent must be discounted item be increased to again sell the article at the original price?
- 66.66%
- 15.5%
- 20.66%
- None of these
Explanation
Let's assume the original price is 100.
After a 40% discount, the price becomes:
100 - 40 = 60
To get back to the original price (100), the increase needed is:
Increase = 100 - 60 = 40
Percentage increase = (Increase / Discounted price) * 100
= (40 / 60) * 100
= 66.66%
