Solution : Profit = SP - CP where SP is Selling Price CP is the Cost Price Profit Percentage = $\frac{Profit}{CP}$×100% According to the question, CP of two bottles = Rs.100 SP of each bottle = Rs.100 SP of two bottles = Rs. 200 Profit = SP - CP = 200 - 100 = 100 ⇒ Profit% = $\frac{100}{100}$×100 = 100% Hence, the correct answer is 100%.
