Cool. So then how much does he sell them for? 20 dozen at a price of 33 each.

Once you get how much he sold them for, subtract out what he paid for them (the first number you calculated).

Then take that number and divide it by what he paid for them. That's his profit percentage.

Answer 10

total no. of toys=20*12=240
CP=20*375=7500
SELLING PRICE=240*33=7920
PRFIT=7920-7500=420
PRFIT%=420/7500*100=5.6%
