$<body bgcolor="red"><font color="blue">$ Total number of packets of blades = 250

Cost of each packet = ₹ 8

So,

C.P of 250 packets of blades

= 8 × 250 = ₹ 2000

70% of 250 packets of blades were sold at rate of ₹ 11 per packet.

70/100 × 250

=175

70 ×250=175

So,

175 packets of blades were sold at ₹ 11 per packet.

S.P = 11 × 175 = ₹ 1925

Remaining packets = 250 - 175 = 75

So,

75 ( remaining packets ) were sold at ₹ 9 per packet

S.P = 9 × 75 = ₹ 675

Total C.P = 1925 + 675 = ₹ 2600

Now,

C.P < S.P = Profit

Profit = S.P - C.P

Profit = 2600 - 2000 = ₹ 600

profit%=profit/c.p × 100

profit%=600/2000 × 100

=30%

profit%= c.p(profit×100)

profit%=2000/600 × 100

= 30%
