In the Meena Bazar ladies purchases with a fair bargaining, so the shopkeepers markup the prices too much.
One of the shopkeeper marked up an article at Rs. X expected huge profit if it is sold on the marked price.
But a lady purchased it at X/2 with her fine bargaining skills, so the expected profit of the shopkeeper diminished by 66.66%.
What is the percentage discount fetched by the customer through bargaining?
