Answer 1

As Sundaram bought the table for Rs 250 so Rs 250 is the cost price of the table.

C.P=Rs 250

As Sundaram sold the table for Rs 285 so Rs 285 is the selling price of the table.

S.P=Rs 285

We know that Profit=S.P-C.P=Rs 285-250=Rs 35.

ANSWER: So Sundaram made a profit of Rs 35.

Hope this helps :)

Answer 2

CP of the table is Rs 250

SP of the table is Rs 285

Since SP>CP

Hence there is a profit

Profit = SP-CP

=Rs 285 - Rs 250

=Rs 35

The profit Sundaram got was Rs 35

Hope it helps
