Question 12
The ratio of the cost price and selling price of a shirt is 32 : 37. What is the profit percentage
Solution
Ratio of cost price to the selling price = 32 : 37
Let Cost price = $$x=32$$ and selling price = $$y=37$$
=> Profit % = $$\frac{(y-x)}{x}\times100$$
= $$\frac{(37-32)}{32}\times100$$
= $$\frac{500}{32}=15.625\%$$
=> Ans - (A)
