(675)/6750*100=10%profit
Answer:
he made a profit
Step-by-step explanation:
The total cost price of 15 chairs =$(15 ×450)=$6750
now,
the shopkeeper sold 12chairs at $512 each &3 chairs at $427 each .
therefore,
the total price he got solding 12 chairs =$(12×512)=$6144
the total price he got solding 3 chairs =$(3×427)=$1281
again ,
the total money he had solding the 15 chairs =$(6144+$1281)=$7425
therefore , the selling price is more than cost price it is profit .
profit =selling price-cost price
=$(7425-6750)
=$675
profit %=profit /costprice×100%
=$ 675/6750×100%
=$10%
10% is your answer .
