Answer 1

➤ Given :-

Cost price (CP) :- ₹ 65

Selling price (SP) :- ₹ 78

➤ To Find :-

Profit percentage of the given sum..............

➤ Formula :-

$\bf \large \orange {\bigstar \: {\underline {\underline {Profit \div Cost \: Price \times 100}}}}$

➤ Solution :-

Profit $=$

$\dashrightarrow \tt13 \: rs$

Now,

Profit percentage $=$

$\dashrightarrow \tt \frac{13}{65} \times 100$

$\dashrightarrow \tt \cancel\frac{13}{65} \times 100 = \frac{1}{5} \times 100$

$\dashrightarrow \tt \frac{1 \times 100}{5} = \frac{100}{5}$

$\dashrightarrow \tt \cancel \frac{100}{5} = \frac{20}{1} = 20 \bf\%$

$\Huge\therefore$The profit percentage is 20 $\bf\%$.
