Samant bought a microwave oven and paid 10% less than its original price. He sold it with the 30% profit on the price he had paid. What percentage of profit did samant earn on the original price?

Options:
A .  17%
B .  20%
C .  27%
D .  32%
E .  None of these
Answer: Option A
 -    Let the original price = 100
  Then, C.P = Rs. 90, S.P = 130% of Rs.90 = Rs.(130/100 x 90) = 117.
  ∴ required percentage = (117-100)% =17%
