Question

A trader buys one kilogram of coffee at Rs. 125 and sells at Rs 200.What is his profit percentage ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

60%

Step-by-step explanation:

Profit= 200-125 =75

Profit percent= profit/CP × 100

= 75/125 × 100

= 60%

Answer 2

Aɴsᴡᴇʀ :-

$\sf{CP \: of \: one \: kg \: coffee \: = \: Rs.125}$

$\sf{SP \: of \: one \: kg \: coffee \: = \: Rs.200}$

$\sf{Since \: (SP) > (CP), so \: there \: is \: a \: gain}.$

$\bf{Gain ⇝ Rs.(200 - 125) = Rs.75}$

Gain% = gain/CP × 100

⇝ 75/125 × 100

⇝ 60%

Hence, his profit percentage is 60%.
