Question

a person buys a book for rs 85 and sells it for rs 98.60.find the profit percentage

Answer 1

$<b>Heya mate. (^_-). Solution below.$
====================================

• Cost price (C.P.) of the book = Rs. 85

• Selling price (S.P.) of the book = Rs. 98.60


• Clearly, S.P. > C.P.
So, gain/profit is made.


• Gain
= S.P. - C.P.
= 98.60 - 85
= 13.60


• Then, gain percent
= Gain/C.P. × 100
= 13.6/85 × 100
= 0.16 × 100
= 16%.
