Answer 1

Answer:

A man buys a radio for '800 and sells It for ‘872, then the profit percent is: d) 9%.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct option is option d) 9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have been given to find the profit percentage on the radio whose cost price is Rs 800 and the man has sold it at Rs 872. Here as we can see that Selling price is greater hence it has profit now we find the profit percentage as below:

Profit = SP - CP

⇒ Profit = Rs 872 - Rs 800

⇒ Profit = Rs 72

Profit percentage = $\frac{profit}{CP}$ × 100%

⇒ Profit percentage = $\frac{72}{800}$ × 100%

⇒ Profit percentage = 9 %

Therefore the correct option is option d) 9%
