Profit = 175 - 150 = Rs. 25

Profit % = (Profit/CostPrice)*100%

Answer 2

$\bf\blue{\large\underline{Answer \: and \: Explaination}}$

$\sf{cost \: price \: of \: the \: book(cp)} = 150rs$

$\sf{selling \: price \: of \: the \: book(sp) = 175rs}$

$\sf\boxed{\sf{profit = selling \: price(sp) - costprice(cp)}}$

$\sf{ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 175 - 150}$

$\sf{\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 25}$

$\sf\boxed{\sf{\therefore{profit = 25rs}}}$

$\sf\boxed{\sf{profit \: percentage</p><p>= \frac{profit}{costprice(cp} \times 100}}$

$\sf{ = \frac{25}{150} \times 100}$

$\sf{ = \frac{50}{3} \:}$

$\sf{ = 16.666}$

$\sf\boxed{\sf{ \therefore{profit \: percentange= \frac{50}{3}\: (or)16.66}}}$
