Answer 1

Answer:

~ 19.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total CP of 16 books = 16 * 215 =  Rs. 3440.

SP of 4 books = 4 * 200 = Rs. 800

SP of 12 books = 12 * 275 = Rs.3300

Total SP of 16 books = 3300 + 800 = Rs. 4100.

Proft % = [(SP - CP) / CP] * 100

               = [(4100 - 3440)/3440] * 100

              =  19. 19 %.  ~ 19.2%
