Question

A man bought a transistor for Rs 720 and sold it for Rs 810,
Find his profit, as well as profit per cent.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The profit % is 12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Bought the transistor = Rs, 720

Sold the transistor = Rs. 810

To Find:

Profit %

Solution:

CP = Rs. 720

SP = Rs. 810

SP > CP

It is profit.

Profit =

⇒ SP - CP

⇒ 810 - 720

⇒ 90

Profit % -

⇒ Profit/CP × 100

⇒ 90/720 × 100

⇒ 1/8 × 100

⇒ 12.5%

Therefore, the profit % is 12.5%

Answer 2

$\bigstar$ Solution :

$\bigstar$ Given :

• Cost price of the transistor, (CP) = Rs. 720
• Selling price the transistor, (SP) = Rs. 810

$\bigstar$ To Find :

• Profit and Profit %

$\bigstar$ Explanation :

$\star$ Cost Price , CP = Rs. 720

$\star$ Selling Price , SP = Rs. 810

$\star$ Here , SP > CP,

So , It is profit.

$\star$ Profit = Selling price - Cost price

=>  SP - CP

=>  810 - 720

=>  90

$\star$ So , Profit is Rs. 90.

$\star$ Now Profit percentage is

$Profit \%=\frac{Profit}{CP}*100\\\\ =>\frac{90}{720}*100\\\\ =>\frac{1}{8}*100\\\\ =>12.5 \%$

∴ The profit percentage  is 12.5 %
