Question

16. Chandra bought a set of thermometers for Rs.400 and sold it at Rs.500. Calculate her profit percent
Please answer me by step by step
​

Answer 1

Answer:

So, C.P=Rs.375

And he sold a chair in Rs.400

So, S.P=Rs.400

We know that

Gain(%)=

C.P

S.P−C.P

×100

Gain(%)=

375

400−375

×100

Gain(%)=

375

25

×100

Gain(%)=6.667%

Answer 2

REQUIRED ANSWER:

$\rule{250}{1.8}$

$\large\text{ \underline{\underline{\bf Given:-}}}$

A set of thermometers with

• Cost Price (CP) = Rs. 400
• Selling Price (SP) = Rs. 500

$\large\text{ \underline{\underline{\bf What To Find:-}}}$

We have to find

• The Profit Percent.

$\large\text{ \underline{\underline{\bf How To Find:-}}}$

To find the profit percent, we have to

• First, find the profit using a certain formula.
• Next, find the profit percent using a certain formula.

$\large\text{ \underline{\underline{\bf Formulae Needed:-}}}$

$\boxed{ \tt 1. \: Profit = SP - CP}$

$\boxed{ \tt 2. \: Profit \: \% = \dfrac{Profit}{CP} \times 100}$

$\large\text{ \underline{\underline{\bf Solution:-}}}$

• Finding the profit.

Using the formula (1),

$\rm \implies Profit = SP - CP$

Substitute the values,

$\rm \implies Profit = 500 - 400$

Subtract the values,

$\rm \implies Profit = Rs. \: 100$

• Finding the profit percent.

Using the formula (2),

$\rm \implies Profit \: \% = \dfrac{Profit}{CP} \times 100$

Substitute the values,

$\rm \implies Profit \: \% = \dfrac{100}{400} \times 100$

Cancel the zeros,

$\rm \implies Profit \: \% = \dfrac{100}{4 \!\!\!\not 0 \!\!\!\not 0} \times 1 \!\!\!\not 0 \!\!\!\not 0$

Also written as,

$\rm \implies Profit \: \% = \dfrac{100}{4}$

Divide 100 by 4,

$\rm \implies Profit \: \% = 25$

$\large\text{ \underline{\underline{\bf Final Answer:-}}}$

∴ Therefore, the profit percent of a set of thermometers is 25 %.

$\rule{250}{1.8}$
