Answer:

25 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price = 60 Ghana cedis for 50 metres

Selling price = 1.50 cedis for 1 meter

x cedis for 50 meters

Cross multiply

Selling price = 75 cedis

Profit = Selling price - Cost price

75 - 60

Profit = 15

Profit % =

$\frac{profit}{cost \: price} \times \frac{100}{1} \\ \frac{15}{60} \times \frac{100}{1} \\ \\$

Profit % = 25 %
