Question

Sakshi sold a book for rupees 27.50 with the profit of 10%. If he had sold it for Rs 25.75 then what would have been the percentage of profit or loss she earned.

Answer 1

Answer:

Selling Price:-Rupees 27.50, Profit:- 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us take the C.P as 100 then the profit is 110 rupees

Therefore  100/x = 110/27.50

             =x=(27.50*100)/110=25

The C.P is 25 rupees.

If she had sold it for 25.75 then

The selling price is more then the cost price so Profit is occurring

Therefore Profit=S.P-C.P

                          =25.75 - 25.00

                 Profit=0.75

Profit percentage= Profit/C.P* 100= 0.75/25*100=3%

She earned Profit of 3%
