Assume that cost price of three articles is 100,100,100

if shopkeeper gets  30% profit on A then selling price will be 130

"        "            "           40%  "            B    "           "             "           140

"        "             "           60%   "           c     "            "           "            160

hence he brought 3 articles for 300  and sold it for 430

hence profit % is=[(430-300)/(300)]*100

Therefore overall profit % will be approximately equal to 43%
