Question 59

A person purchased a vehicle for ₹4,90,828 and sold it for ₹5,52,920. What is the percent profit earned on this vehicle (correct to two decimal places)?

Solution

We know that :
Profit percent = $$\frac{S.P-C.P}{C.P}\times\ 100$$
Therefore substituting the values here we get
Profit percent =$$\frac{5,52,920-4,90,828}{4,90,828}\times\ 100$$
= $$\frac{62,092}{4,90,828}\times\ 100=\ 12.65\%$$
