Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
माना कि वस्तु का क्रयमूल्य `= ₹ x`
मनोज के द्वारा अंकित मूल्य `= (3x)/(2)`
अमन का क्रयमूल्य `= (3x)/(2) xx (80)/(100) =(6x)/(5)`
अमन का विक्रयमूल्य `=(6x)/(5)+20`
`=(6x+100)/(5)`
प्रश्न से,
`(x xx 130)/(100)=(6x+100)/(5)`
`x=200`
`therefore` अमन का `C.P =(6x)/(5) =240`
अमन का `S.P =(130)/(5)`
`therefore` लाभ `%=(20)/(240)xx100`
`=(100)/(12)=8.33%`
