Answer:
[tex] \boxed{ \boxed{ \sf{ \bold{ \purple{15\%}}}}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
SP ( Selling price ) = Rs 17250
Profit ( P ) = Rs 2250
CP ( Cost price ) = Rs 17250 - Rs 2250 = Rs 15000
Now, let's find the profit / gain percentage :
Profit % = [tex] \sf{ \frac{profit}{cost \: price} \times 100\%}[/tex]
plug the values
⇒[tex] \sf{ \frac{2250}{15000} \times 100\%}[/tex]
Calculate
⇒[tex] \sf{15\%}[/tex]

▪[tex] \underline{ \underline{ \sf{ \blue{What \: is \: the \: formula \: to \: find \: profit \: percent \: and \: loss \: percent?}}}}[/tex]
We know that , profit and loss are calculated on cost price ( CP ). So, profit percent and loss percent can be calculated by using the following formula :
[tex] \boxed{ \sf{Loss\% \: = \frac{cp - sp}{cp} \times 100\%}}[/tex]
[tex] \boxed{ \sf{ \bold{Profit\% \: = \: \frac{sp \: - \: cp}{cp} \times 100}}}[/tex]
Hope I helped!
