Question
The cost price of an article is
30% less than its selling price. For how much profit was it sold? (Round off up to 2 decimal places)Solution
ATQ,
Let the selling price of the article be Rs. ‘100x’. So, the cost price of the article = 100x × 0.7 = Rs. ‘70x’. Profit earned = 100x – 70x = Rs. ‘30x’. Required percentage = (30x/70x) × 100 = 42.857% ≈ 42.86%
