Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

A whole sale dealer observed that cost of 45 pants of equal to selling price of 30 pants.

To find:-

What is his profit percent?

Solution:-

Let the Cost Price of an pant be Rs. X

Cost Price of 45 pants = Rs. 45X

Given that

Cost Price of 45 pants = Selling Price of 30 pants

=>45X = Selling Price of 30 Pants

=>Selling Price of 30 pants = 45X

=>Selling Price of 1 pant = 45X/30

=>3X/2

Selling Price of 1 Pant = Rs. 3X/2

Here , Cost Price is Lee than The Selling Price

(given)

Profit = Selling Price - Cost Price

=>Profit = (3X/2)-X

=>Profit = (3X-2X)/2

=>Profit = Rs. X/2

Profit Percentage =( Profit /Cost Price)×100

=>P% = [(X/2)/X]×100

=>P%=(X/2X)×100

=>P% = (1/2)×100

=>P% = 100/2

=>P% = 50

Therefore, Profit Percentage = 50%

(or)

If the cost price of M articles is equal to the selling price of N articles then

[(M-N)/N]×100

Here M = 45 and N = 30

Profit Percentage =[ (45-30)/30]×100

=>(15/30)×100

=>(1/2)×100

=>100/2

=>50

Therefore, Profit Percentage = 50%

Answer:-

The Profit Percentage for the given problem is 50%

Used formulae:-

1.

If the cost price of M articles is equal to the selling price of N articles then

[(M-N)/N]×100

2.Profit = Selling Price - Cost Price

3.Profit Percentage =( Profit /Cost Price)×100
