Answer 1

$\huge{\pink{\fbox{❥Answer}}}$

Given:

• Selling price = ₹600
• Profit = 20%

Solution:

Finding the profit price:

$\frac{20}{100} \times 600$

So the profit is ₹120.

Now, finding the CP:

$\implies{600 + 120}$

$\bold{\implies{CP = ₹720}}$

Again,

• CP = ₹720
• SP = ₹750

So, the profit = $750 - 720$

= $₹30$

Profit percentage:-

$\implies{\frac{30}{720} \times 100}$

$\bold{\red{\implies{4.16 \: percent}}}$
