Let CP of 1 shirt = Rs. 1
So, CP of 8 shirts = Rs. 8
And, CP of 25 shirts = Rs. 25
Selling 25 shirts earn profit = CP of 8 shirt = Rs. 8
∴ Profit % = 8/25 × 100 = 32%
So, CP of 8 shirts = Rs. 8
And, CP of 25 shirts = Rs. 25
Selling 25 shirts earn profit = CP of 8 shirt = Rs. 8
∴ Profit % = 8/25 × 100 = 32%
