Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:The price for which the table was bought=650

                                             the total amount of money for the table=700

                                              the profit that he got=840-700

Answer 2

A person purchased a table = Rs 650

he spent money on its repair= Rs 50

Total CP = Rs (650+50) = Rs 700

SP of it = Rs 850

Now, the profit = Rs ( SP - CP )

Rs ( 850 - 700 ) = Rs 150

Hence, the profit % = profit/ CP × 100

150/ 700 × 100 = 21.42%
