Answer:
The correct answer is 33.33%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost price of each book be x.
Then, the cost price of 8 books will be 8x.
Atq, Selling price of 6 books = cost price of 8 books = 8x.
Now we have , Selling price of 6 books is 8x.
but the cost price of 6 books will be 6x.
Since, SP>CP..profit.
Formula for calculating Profit %= (SP-CP)/CP*100
So, profit% = (8x -6x)/6x *100
Profit%= 2x/6x*100
profit%= 33.33333..%
