Profit = $330 − $300 = $30. Percentage profit = ($30 ÷ $300) × 100% = 10%.
2. A shopkeeper buys an item for $400 and sells it for $600. Calculate the percentage profit.
50%
Profit = $600 − $400 = $200. Percentage profit = ($200 ÷ $400) × 100% = 50%.
3. A shopkeeper buys an item for $80 and sells it for $104. Calculate the percentage profit.
30%
Profit = $104 − $80 = $24. Percentage profit = ($24 ÷ $80) × 100% = 30%.
4. A shopkeeper buys an item for $340 and sells it for $476. Calculate the percentage profit.
40%
Profit = $476 − $340 = $136. Percentage profit = ($136 ÷ $340) × 100% = 40%.
5. A shopkeeper buys an item for $260 and sells it for $286. Calculate the percentage profit.
10%
Profit = $286 − $260 = $26. Percentage profit = ($26 ÷ $260) × 100% = 10%.

Profit = $150 − $100 = $50. Percentage profit = ($50 ÷ $100) × 100% = 50%.
7. A shopkeeper buys an item for $180 and sells it for $234. Calculate the percentage profit.
30%
Profit = $234 − $180 = $54. Percentage profit = ($54 ÷ $180) × 100% = 30%.
8. A shopkeeper buys an item for $140 and sells it for $175. Calculate the percentage profit.
