Question

christmas cards are bought at Rs 1500 per 100 cards and sold at rs 200 per dozen carda find the profit % or loss %.

Answer 1

it is profit. coz one card @ 15 rupees*100=1500
dozen means 12 so 12*15=180 only but they sold @200 rupees. so 20 rupees profit for single dozen

Answer 2

The profit% is 11.13%

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price of 100 cards = Rs.1500

Cost price of 1 card =$\frac{1500}{100}=Rs.15$

Selling price of 1 dozen cards = Rs.200

Selling price of 12 cards = Rs.200

Selling price of 1 card =$\frac{200}{12}=Rs.16.67$

SP>CP

So, Profit

$Profit\% = \frac{SP-CP}{CP} \times 100$

$Profit\% = \frac{16.67-15}{15} \times 100$

$Profit\% = 11.13\%$

Hence The profit% is 11.13%
