Good morning,

Answer:

8%

Explanation:

Let x be the cost price and

y the final sell price

p gain percent

the gain precent p = (20/100)-(10/100)-[(20×10)/(100×100)]

= (20-10)/100 - 2/100

= 10/100 - 2/100

= 8/100

example : x=20

x(1+20/100)(1-10/100) = 20(1+20/100)(1-10/100) = 20(120/100×90/100)

= 20(10 800÷10 000)

= 21.6

20+20p% =21.6 then 20p%=1.6 then p%=1.6/20=16/200=8/100 then p=8.

for more details look at the photo below.
