sp of 100 pens would be 100×4=₹400

profit= 400-250=₹150

profit % = profit / cp ×100

profit %=150÷250×100

profit %=60%

Answer 2

Answer:

The profit percent is 60 %.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a shop keeper purchased 100 ball pens for rs.250 .

The cost price of 100 pens is Rs. 250.

He sold each pen for Rs.4.

The selling price of 100 pens is

$100\times 4=400$

The formula for profit percentage:

$P\%=\frac{SP-CP}{CP}\times 100$

$P\%=\frac{400-250}{250}\times 100$

$P\%=\frac{150}{250}\times 100$

$P\%=60$

Therefore the profit percent is 60 %.
