(b) 40 %
(c) 20 %
(d) 33%​

Answer 1

Answer:

50%

because the formula of calculating profit % is

profit/CP × 100

profit = SP-CP

profit = 120-80

profit = 40

profit % = 40/80×100

= 50%

please mark as brainliest answer.

Answer 2

The profit percentage is 50%

Given :

CP = Rs. 80 ; SP = Rs. 120

To find :

The profit percentage is

(a) 50 %

(b) 40 %

(c) 20 %

(d) 33 %

Solution :

Step 1 of 2 :

Calculate profit amount

Here it is given that

CP = Rs. 80

SP = Rs. 120

So profit amount

= SP - CP

= Rs. 120 - Rs. 80

= Rs. 40

Step 2 of 2 :

Calculate profit percentage

The required profit percentage

$\displaystyle \sf{ = \frac{40}{80} \times 100\% }$

$\displaystyle \sf{ = \frac{1}{2} \times 100\% }$

$\displaystyle \sf{ = 50\% }$

Hence the correct option is (a) 50 %
