Question

Emma bought two televisions at 2500 cedis each. One got slightly damaged during transportation. He sold the undamaged one at 3000 cedis and sold the damaged one at 2200 cedis. Calculate the percentage profit made by Emma.

Answer 1

Answer:

90%

Step-by-step explanation:

cost price of both tv = 2500

sale price of undamaged = 3000

sale price of damaged = 2200

sale price of both tv = 5200

profit = sale price - cost price

profit = 5200 - 2500

profit = 2700

profit percentage = profit × 100 ÷ cost price

profit percentage = 2700 × 100 ÷ 2500

profit percentage = 90%
