Hey!
Cost price of typewriter=1200Rs.
Repair= 200Rs.
Total cost price=1200+200=1400Rs.
Selling price= 1680Rs.
Selling price>Cost price so there is a profit.
Profit= SP-CP.
= 1680-1400.
=280Rs.
Profit%=(profit/CP)*100.
=(280/1400)*100.
=(1/5)*100.
= 20%.
So the profit percentage is 20%.
Hope it helps.
