A Correct answer
Explanation

Profit is calculated as (Selling Price - Cost Price) / Cost Price * 100. Here, (1500 - 1250) / 1250 = 250 / 1250 = 0.2, which is 20%.

AI explanation

Using the profit percentage formula, we first find the absolute profit by subtracting the cost price from the selling price, which is Rs. 1500 - Rs. 1250 = Rs. 250. To find the profit percentage, divide the profit by the cost price and multiply by 100, yielding (250 / 1250) * 100. This calculation gives a result of 20%.
