Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 15%

Rohan purchased tables at the rate of Rs. 275 per table.

CP of 1 table = 275 Rs.

If he sells 16 tables for Rs. 5060

SP of 1 table = 5060/16 = 316.25 Rs.

Profit % = (SP - CP) × 100/CP

Profit % = (316.25 - 275) × 100/275

Profit % = 4125/275

Profit % = 15%
