Question

If cost price of book is 700 and sold at rs 770 find profit percentage

Answer 1

$\sf \Large Solution!!$

$\sf \large Given:$

$\sf \to Cost\:price(CP)=Rs.\:700$

$\sf \to Selling\:price(SP)=Rs.\:770$

$\sf \large Formula:$

$\sf \to Profit=SP-CP$

$\sf \to Profit\%=\dfrac{Profit}{CP}\times 100$

$\sf \large So,$

$\sf \to Profit=Rs.\:770-Rs.\:700$

$\sf \to Profit=Rs.\:70$

$\sf \large Now,$

$\sf \to Profit\%=\dfrac{\cancel{70}\;^{10}}{\cancel{7}\cancel{00}}\times 1\cancel{00}$

$\sf \bigstar Profit\%=10\%$

Thanks for asking!! :)
