Answer:

Profit percentage is 18.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

200 dozen notebooks were bought for Rs 420

1dozen= 12

So, 200 dozens=200×12

=2400 notebooks

Transportation cost=Rs 72400

So, total CP=Rs(72400+420)

=Rs 72820

Now, they are sold 1 for Rs 36

So, 200 dozens=2400

2400 notebooks are sold for= Rs(36×2400)

Rs 86400

Since, SP is greater than CP,

Profit=Rs(86400-72820)

=Rs 13580

Profit percentage = (profit/CP)×100%

=(13580/72820)×100%

=18.6%
