If the cost price is 96% of the selling price, then what is the profit percentage ?
Model Answer
Profit Percentage Solution:
- Let Selling Price (SP) = ₹ 100
- Given Cost Price (CP) = 96% of SP = ₹ 96
- Absolute Profit: SP - CP = 100 - 96 = ₹ 4
- Profit Percentage:
Profit % = (Profit / CP) × 100 = (4 / 96) × 100 = 100 / 24 = 4.167% (or 4 1/6 %)
Answer: The profit percentage is 4.167%.
हिंदी में प्रश्न एवं आदर्श उत्तर
यदि खरीदी मूल्य बिक्री मूल्य का 96% है, तब लाभ प्रतिशत कितना होगा ?
हल:
- माना बिक्री मूल्य (SP) = ₹ 100
- तब क्रय मूल्य (CP) = SP का 96% = ₹ 96
- लाभ = SP - CP = 100 - 96 = ₹ 4
- लाभ प्रतिशत = (लाभ / CP) × 100
= (4 / 96) × 100 = (1 / 24) × 100 = 25 / 6 % = 4.167% (या 4 1/6 %)
उत्तर: लाभ प्रतिशत 4.167% (या 4 1/6%) है।
