profit 15%

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost Price (C.P.)    = Rs. 5200

Selling Price (S.P.) = Rs. 5980

Profit (P)                 = S.P. - C.P.

                              = 5980 - 5200

                              = Rs. 780

Therefore,

Profit Percentage (P%) =  P / C.P

                                      = 780 / 5200 X 100

                                      = 0.15 X 100

                                      = 15%

Hope this helps!
