To find :-

Profit percent =?

First we have to find out the profit :-

${\green{\overline{\green{\underline{\blue{\boxed{\red{\mathtt{⟹ SELLING\:PRICE - COST\:PRICE = PROFIT }}}}}}}}}$

So the profit = 425-350 = 75 rupees

$\sf{= > \frac{ Profit \: \: price \times 100 }{cost \: \: \: price}}$

$= > \frac{75 \times 100}{350}$

$= > 50\%$

50 % is the answer of this question

Answer 2

Given :-

Cost Price of a bangle box = ₹ 350

Selling Price of a bangle box = ₹ 425

To find :-

• Profit Percent gained by Prachi

Solution :-

Let us firstly find the Profit,

P = S.P. - C.P.

= ₹ 425 - ₹ 350

= ₹ 75

Now let us find the Profit Percent,

Profit Percent = ${\frac{Profit}{C.P.}}$ × 100

= ${\frac{75}{350}}$ × 100

= ${\frac{3}{14}}$ × 100

= ${\frac{300}{14}}$

= 21${\frac{6}{14}}$ %

Or,

21.4285714286 %

★ Note :- P denotes Profit, C.P. denotes Cost Price, S.P. denotes Selling Price.

☆ Required Answer:-

Profit Percent gained by Prachi

= 21${\frac{6}{14}}$ %

Or,

21.4285714286 %
