    D)  \[29\frac{1}{13}%\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Let marked price be Rs. \[x.\] \[\therefore \]      CP = Rs. \[\frac{13}{15}x\] SP = Rs. \[\frac{112x}{100}\] \[\therefore \] Profit per cent = Rs.\[\left( \frac{112x}{100}-\frac{13x}{15} \right)\]= Rs. \[\frac{76x}{300}\] \[\therefore \] Profit per cent \[=\frac{76x}{300}\times \frac{15}{13x}\times 100=\frac{380}{13}=29\frac{3}{13}%\]
