$\mathit{S}\mathit{P}=\mathit{C}\mathit{P}+$ Profit
Profit\% $=($ Profit $∕$ CP $)\times 100$
Calculations:
Profit in selling 152 chairs $=52$ S.P.
Profit in selling 1 chair = 52/152 S.P.
Profit = S.P. - C.P.
⇒ 52/152 S.P = S.P. - C.P.
⇒ C.P = S.P. - 52/152 S.P = 100 S.P. / 152 S.P.
Now, Profit\% $=($ Profit $∕$ CP $)\times 100$
⇒ Profit percentage $=(52∕152$ S.P $)∕(100$ S.P. $∕152$ S.P. $)\times 100=(52$ S.P. $∕100$ S.P. $)\times 100$
