Question

An article is sold 315.00 and the profit is 65.00 find the Percentage profit.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to find the Cost price .... as SP and Profit are given

Sol) CP= SP×100/100+Profit

= 31500/100+Profit

= 31500/100+65.00

=315/165

=1.90

Now, time to take PROFIT

Profit = SP-CP

= 315.00-1.90

= 313.1

PROFIT in %

=Profit/CP×100

=313.1/1.90×100

ANSWER=16,478.9474

Answer 2

Answer:

Profit percentage is 26%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information,

Selling price = 315

profit = 65

We have to find out the profit percentage.

As we know that,

Profit = SP - CP

Where,

SP = Selling price

CP = Cost price

By putting given values in these formula

65 = 315 - CP

CP = $315-65$

CP = $250$

Cost price (CP) is 250.

We know that,

Profit percentage = $\frac{profit}{cp} \times 100$

Profit percentage = $\frac{65}{250} \times 100$

By dividing 65 by 250 we get

Profit percentage = $0.26 \times 100$

Profit percentage = $26\%$

Hence,

Profit percentage is 26%.
