Question 61

If cost price of an article is 30% less than the selling price of that article, then what will be the profit percentage?

Solution

Let Selling Price of the product be Rs.100
Then, Cost Price = Rs.100-30% of Rs.100 = Rs.100-Rs.30 = Rs.70
Profit percentage = $$\dfrac{100-70}{70}\times100 = \dfrac{30}{70}\times100 = 42.84$$%
