To find the selling price of the dish, we need to add the desired gross profit to the cost of the dish. If the cost of the dish is ₦1,200 and the desired gross profit is 40%, then the gross profit amount would be: Gross Profit = 40% of ₦1,200 Gross Profit = 0.4 x ₦1,200 Gross Profit = ₦480 To maintain a 40% gross profit, we need to add this amount to the cost of the dish: Selling Price = Cost + Gross Profit Selling Price = ₦1,200 + ₦480 Selling Price = ₦1,680 Therefore, the dish must be sold at ₦1,680 to maintain a 40% gross profit. So the option that shows the selling price of ₦1,680 is the correct answer.
