Question

Priyanshu brought pens rupees 120 a dozen and sold it for rupees 15 each what is his profit percent???

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

One dozen =12

So to find the cost of each pen we should do

120/12=10

So for each pen the cost is 10 rupees

She sold it for 15 rupees so to find the total cost we should do 15×12=180

To find profit percentage we should do SP-CP÷100×CO

So 180-120÷100×120

60×120÷100=

72 percent
