Correct Answer: 26%


Solution : The difference between the selling price (SP) and the cost price (CP):
Profit = Selling price − Cost price = Rs.945 − Rs.750 = Rs.195
Profit percentage = $\frac{\text{Profit}}{\text{Cost price}}×100$
= $\frac{195}{750}×100$
= $\frac{13}{50}×100$
= $26$%
Hence, the correct answer is 26%.
