Here you can proceed in two method. Assume the total amount to be Rs. x or Rs. 100 for easier calculation. I have taken the best out of the two, i.e. x

So, the steps are:

• Find the individual C.P. and S.P.
• Check whether it's a profit or loss. If S.P > C.P, then it's a profit. If S.P < C.P, then it's a loss.
• Now calculate the profit % (here) by the formula given below ⇒

$\large{ \boxed{ \tt{Profit\% = \frac{Profit}{C.P.} \times 100}}}$

The final answer here is 25%
