In A Certain Business, The Profit Is 220% Of The Cost. If The Cost Increases By 25% But The Selling Price Remains Constant, Approximately What Percentage Of The Selling Price Is The Profit ?

Answer»

Let C.P.= Rs. 100.

Then, PROFIT = Rs.220, 

S.P. = Rs.320.

New C.P. = 125% of Rs. 100 = Rs. 125 

New S.P. = Rs.320.

Profit = Rs. (320 - 125) = Rs. 195 

Required PERCENTAGE = 195/320×100== 60.9 =~ 61%.

Let C.P.= Rs. 100.

Then, Profit = Rs.220, 

S.P. = Rs.320.

New C.P. = 125% of Rs. 100 = Rs. 125 

New S.P. = Rs.320.

Profit = Rs. (320 - 125) = Rs. 195 

Required percentage = 195/320×100== 60.9 =~ 61%.
