Answer : 4%

Step - by - step explanation :

when the man buys the article he loses $27.50

so when he sells it he gains [ 28.60 - 27.50 ] --> $1.10

now to find out how much he profited we need to find out the percentage . . .

what is 1.10 / 27.50 ? 0.04

what is 0.04 x 100 ? 4

the profit percentage is 4%

I'M SO SORRY IF THIS IS WRONG - I JUST SEARCHED UP HOW TO DO PROFIT PERCENTAGES SINCE I HAVEN'T LEARNED THAT YET /( 'O~O)\

HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY - HOPE THIS HELPED <33
