Explanation:

Let the printed price be p.

If 40% discount is given, selling price = 0.6 × 60p = 36 p

20% profit is then made.

Total cost price = 36p/1.2 = 30p.

Ten toys are destroyed in the fire.

The remaining toys are sold at a price such that the same amount of profit is made as in the conditional case.

Profit made on remaining toys = 6p

Total selling price of remaining toys = 36p

Discount that should be given = 50p – 36p = 14p

Discount% = 14p50p×100% = 28%

Hence, option (d).
