For there to be a profit,


\begin{gathered} \\ \text{profit}=\text{ selling price - cost price} \end{gathered}

From the question,


\begin{gathered} \text{Cost price = \$3.20} \\ \text{Percentage profit = 35\%} \end{gathered}

Concept: The formula for the percent profit is given below as


\text{percentage profit = }\frac{\text{profit}}{\cos t\text{ price}}*100\text{ \%}
