Using the figures given below, frame problems based on profit percent or loss percent.
Cost price ₹1600, selling price ₹ 2800
उत्तर
Problem: A man bought an article for Rs 1600 and sold it for Rs 2800. Find his profit percent.
Cost price of an article = Rs 1600
Selling price of an article = Rs 2800
Since selling price is more than cost price, so there is a profit.
Profit = Selling Price − Cost Price
= 2800 − 1600
= Rs 1200
Let x % be the profit made by the man in this transaction. Then,
`"x"/100 = "profit"/"cost price" = 1200/1600`
`=> "x"/100 xx 100 = 1200/1600 xx 100`
⇒ x = 75
∴ The man made a profit of 75% in this transaction.
