Answer 2

Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, selling price of 10 m cloth is obtained as profit.

Profit of 10 m cloth = (S.P. of 30 m cloth) – (C.P. of 30 m cloth)

Selling price of 20 m cloth = Selling Price of 30 m of cloth

Let cost of each metre be Rs. 100.

Therefore, cost price of 20 m cloth = Rs. 2000 and S.P. of 20 m cloth = Rs. Rs. 3000

Profit% = (10 × 100)/20 = 50%

Profit of 50 % was made by the merchant.
