Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : 25%

Given:

False length = 800 cm

Formula Used:

Profit% = True weight - false weight / false weight × 100

Calculations:

According to the formula,

Profit% = True weight - false weight / false weight × 100

⇒ 1000 - 800 / 800 × 100

⇒ 200 / 800 × 100

⇒ 100 / 4

⇒ 25%

The vegetable vendor made a profit of 25%.
