Answer 1

80/9

Explanation:

If the discount is 10 percent the profit will be 90 percent of the normal profit. The answer will be 100 percent of the normal profit or the value of 1 normal profit. An easy way to do this is to divide the equation by 9 to get the 10 percent profit.

When we do this we get: 8/9

80/9 or approximately 8.88888888889
