Answer 2

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price of 5 pens = 1 rupee

Cost price of 1 pen = 1/5 rupee

Selling price of 4 pens = 1 rupee

selling price of 1 pen = 1/4 rupee

SP > CP so.there is a profit.

Profit = S.P - C.P

= 1/4 - 1/5

= 5-4/20

= 1/20

Profit % = profit / CP × 100

=1/20 × 4/1 × 100

= 20%
