Question

A table bought for Rs 2,500 and sold at Rs 3,000. Find profit or loss percent.

Answer 1

Hello,


The cost price of the table is = rs 2500

The selling price is = rs 3000

Now
SP is greater than CP

Hence, there is a profit.

Profit = SP - CP
So,
Profit is equal to
$= 3000 - 2500 = 500$
Now,

Profit percentage is equal to

$p\% = ( \frac{profit}{cp} \times 100) \%\\ \\ = ( \frac{500}{2500} \times 100)\% \\ \\ = ( \frac{100}{5}) \% \\ \\ = 20\%$
Hence,


The profit percentage is equal to 20%
