Solution

The correct option is D 50
Cost price $= R s . 10$
Selling price $= R s . 15$

Profit = Selling price - Cost price $= 15 - 10 = 5 R s .$

Hence, profit% $= \frac{p r o f i t}{C P} \times 100$

$\Rightarrow \frac{15 - 10}{10} \times 100$ $= \frac{5}{10} \times 100$ $= 50 %$

Option D is correct.
