Answer:

Profit % =50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 50 kg = sh 4000

Selling price of 1kg = sh 120

Selling price of 50 kg = sh 6000

[tex]profit \% = \frac{Selling \ price - cost \ price}{cost \ price} \times 100\\[/tex]

            [tex]=\frac{6000 - 4000}{4000} \times 100\\\\=\frac{2000}{4000} \times 100\\\\=\frac{1}{2} \times 100\\\\=50 \%[/tex]
