Question

A shopkeeper makes a profit of 15% by selling a book for Rs 230. What is the C.P. and the actual profit?​

Answer 1

Answer:

CP=200 SP=30

Since

CP=(SP ✖ 100) ➗ ( 100 + Profit %)

CP=(230 ✖ 100) ➗ (100+15)

CP=23000 ➗ 115=200

Also,

Profit SP - CP=Rs(230-200)

=30rs actually profit 30 rupees
