Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Selling price (S.P) = Rs.4240

Profit (P) = Rs.240

To find:

Cost price (C.P)

Profit percentage (P%)

Solution:

C.P = S.P - Profit

  • Rs.4240 - Rs.240
  • Rs.4000

P% = Profit × 100/C.P

  • 240 × 100/4000
  • 24000/4000
  • 6%

∴ The cost price is Rs.4000 and 6% is the profit percentage.

Step-by-step explanation:

S.P of almirah= ₹4240

Profit = ₹240

So,

C.P of almirah= ₹(4240-240) = ₹4000

Profit percentage= (240/4000*100)% = 6%
