Explanation:

Let the cost price be c and marked price be m. Total selling price for 12 toys = Rs. 12c.

Anil sells 8 toys at 20% discount. Hence, total selling price for 8 toys = 8 × 0.8m = 6.4m

He then sells 4 toys at further 25% discount. Hence, total selling price for 8 toys = 4 × 0.75 × 0.8m = 2.4m

Given, 6.4m + 2.4m = 2112

⇒ m = 240

Now, he earns an overall profit of 10%

∴ 12c × 1.1 = 2112

⇒ c = 160

∴ With no discounts his profit % = (240 - 160)/160 × 100 = 50%

Hence, option (a).
