Answer :

discount = 20%
price = 7200 Rs.
So, mp = 9000 Rs.

Now, Sells at discount = 16%
So, selling price = 7560 Rs.

Note that you purchased at 7200 Rs. and sold at 7560 Rs. so 5% profit.

Answer = 5% Profit
0.8 x = 7200
x = 9000
sale price = 0.84 * 9000 = 7560

profit= 360

profit percentage = 360 *100/ 7200
