Explanation:

The Shopkeeper procures the table at price 'p'

He gains 20% on the transaction with Amal

So, Amal buys the table at '1.2p'

Amal sells athe table at 30% profit,

So, the Selling Price of Amal = 1.3 × 1.2p = 1.56p

⇒ x = 1.56p

The Shopkeeper loses 20% on the transaction with Asim

So, Asim buys the table at '0.8p'

Asim sells the table at 30% loss,

So, the Selling Price of Asim = 0.7 * 0.8p = 0.56p

⇒ y = 0.56p

(x - y)/p = (1.56p - 0.56p)/p = 1.

Hence, option (a).
