Answer 1

Question :

You bought a dress for 200 birr and you sold it for 400 birr. What was your percentage profit?

----------------

Before, finding the answer. Let's find out we can find the answer.

• In this question, we are asked to find the Profit percent.
• So, to find that, we have to first subtract the Selling Price and Cost Price to find the Profit.
• Next, to find the Profit Percent, we must use the formula of :

$\boxed{ \sf Profit \: Percent = \dfrac{Profit }{C.P} \times 100 }$

________________________

Given :

• Cost Price = 200 birr
• Selling Price = 400 birr

To find :

• Profit Percentage

Solution :

Since,

S.P > C.P [Here, it is Profit]

Profit = S.P - C.P

         = 400 - 200

         = 200

Therefore, Profit is 200 birr.

We know that,

${ \sf Profit \: Percent = \dfrac{Profit }{C.P} \times 100 }$

                     $\sf = \dfrac{200}{200} \times 100$

                     $\sf = \dfrac{20000}{200}$

                     $\sf = \dfrac{200 \not 0 \not 0}{2 \not0 \not 0 }$

                     $\sf = \dfrac{200}{2}$

                     $\sf = 100$

Therefore, the Profit Percentage is 100%.

Answer 2

GIVEN :-

$\bold{COST ~PRICE = 200 \: birr}$

$\bold{SELLING \: PRICE = 400 \: birr}$

TO FIND :-

★ PROFIT PERCENTAGE ★

FORMULA USED :-

$\bold{PROFIT~PERCENT= \frac{profite}{c.p} \times 100 }$

SOLUTION :-

S.P > C.P ( HERE IT'S PROFIT )

★ PROFIT = S.P - C.P

★ PROFIT = 400 - 200

★ PROFIT = 200

→ SO THE PROFIT IS 200 BIRR...

$\bold{WE \: \: KNOW \: \: THAT... }$

$\bold{PROFIT \: PERCENT \: = \: \frac{profite}{c.p} ×100}$

SO,

$\bold{ \frac{200}{200} \times 100}$

$\bold{ \frac{200 \: \cancel{ 00}}{2 \: \cancel{00}}}$

$\bold { \frac{ \cancel{200}}{ \cancel2}}$

$\huge \bold \red{100 \: peresent}$

100 % IS THE PROFIT ✅
