Find the Profit Percent or Loss Percent:
$C . P = R s . 280$ ; $S . P = R s . 350$

Open in App

Solution

Cost price $C . P . = R S .280$

Selling price $S . P . = R s .350$

We need to find the profit percent.

Profit percent $= \frac{p r o f i t \times 100}{C . P .}$

Profit $= S . P - C . P$

$= 350 - 280$

Profit $= R s .70$

Therefore loss percent $= \frac{70 \times 100}{280} = 25 %$
