A man buys a book for ₹200 and sells it for ₹250. What is his profit percentage?

Correct option is A

Given:

- Cost Price (C.P.) = ₹200
- Selling Price (S.P.) = ₹250

Formula Used:

- Profit Percentage = $$\frac{\text{Profit}}{\text{Cost Price}} \times 100$$​
- Profit = $$\text{Selling Price} - \text{Cost Price}$$​

Solution:

1. Calculate the profit:
​$$\text{Profit} = \text{S.P.} - \text{C.P.} = 250 - 200 = 50$$​

2. Calculate the profit percentage:
​$$\text{Profit Percentage} = \frac{\text{Profit}}{\text{C.P.}} \times 100 = \frac{50}{200} \times 100 = 25\%$$​

Final Answer:

The profit percentage is **25%**.
