775
cost price = cp = Rs 375
selling price =sp =Rs 400
sp > cp
 gain = sp- cp
g= 400-375=25

gain % = gain*100/cp

= (25*100)/375
=20/3%

Hii friend,

Cost price(CP)=₹375
Selling price(SP)=₹400
Therefore,
SP>CP,that means profit.
Profit=SP-CP
=400-375
=₹25

PROFIT=₹25

Profit percentage= P/CP×100
Profit℅=25*100/375
=20/3℅

Therefore,
Profit percentage=20/3℅

Sry my percentage sign is wrong and I have not got correct one is my keyboard.SORRY.
:( .

HOPE IT HELPED YOU.............
