1. A shopkeeper buys an item for $400 and sells it for $480. Calculate the percentage profit.

Profit = $480 − $400 = $80. Percentage profit = ($80 ÷ $400) × 100% = 20%.
2. A shopkeeper buys an item for $400 and sells it for $440. Calculate the percentage profit.
10%
Profit = $440 − $400 = $40. Percentage profit = ($40 ÷ $400) × 100% = 10%.
3. A shopkeeper buys an item for $400 and sells it for $520. Calculate the percentage profit.
30%
Profit = $520 − $400 = $120. Percentage profit = ($120 ÷ $400) × 100% = 30%.
4. A shopkeeper buys an item for $80 and sells it for $88. Calculate the percentage profit.
10%
Profit = $88 − $80 = $8. Percentage profit = ($8 ÷ $80) × 100% = 10%.
5. A shopkeeper buys an item for $200 and sells it for $280. Calculate the percentage profit.
40%
Profit = $280 − $200 = $80. Percentage profit = ($80 ÷ $200) × 100% = 40%.
6. A shopkeeper buys an item for $220 and sells it for $286. Calculate the percentage profit.
30%
Profit = $286 − $220 = $66. Percentage profit = ($66 ÷ $220) × 100% = 30%.
7. A shopkeeper buys an item for $100 and sells it for $120. Calculate the percentage profit.
20%
Profit = $120 − $100 = $20. Percentage profit = ($20 ÷ $100) × 100% = 20%.
8. A shopkeeper buys an item for $380 and sells it for $570. Calculate the percentage profit.
50%
Profit = $570 − $380 = $190. Percentage profit = ($190 ÷ $380) × 100% = 50%.
9. A shopkeeper buys an item for $20 and sells it for $24. Calculate the percentage profit.
20%
Profit = $24 − $20 = $4. Percentage profit = ($4 ÷ $20) × 100% = 20%.
10. A shopkeeper buys an item for $100 and sells it for $110. Calculate the percentage profit.
10%
Profit = $110 − $100 = $10. Percentage profit = ($10 ÷ $100) × 100% = 10%.
11. A shopkeeper buys an item for $340 and sells it for $408. Calculate the percentage profit.
20%
Profit = $408 − $340 = $68. Percentage profit = ($68 ÷ $340) × 100% = 20%.
