Question

A textile mill charges ₹ 750 for a 40 meter piece of shirting . A shopkeeper sells it at ₹ 22 per metre. What profit does he make ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

CP of 40 metres shirting piece

= ₹ 750

SP of 1 metre shirting piece

= ₹ (750 ÷ 40)

= ₹ 18.75

SP of 1 metre

= ₹ 22

Profit

= ₹ (22 – 18.75)

= ₹ 3.25

∴ He makes a profit of ₹ 3.25

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

cp of 40m of peice is =₹750

sp of 1 m of piece of shirting=₹22

therefore sp of 40 m of piece of shirting

₹(22*40) = ₹880

hence profit of will shopkeeper makes is = (sp-cp)

= (880 - 750 )

= ₹ 130
