Dear Student

From the question, it is given that
Cost price of refrigerator =₹12000
Selling price of refrigerator =₹13500
Since (SP) > (CP), so there is a profit Profit = (SP)–(CP)
=₹(13500 - 12000)
= ₹1500
Profit % = {(Profit/CP) × 100}
= {(1500/12000) × 100}
= {150000/12000}
= 150/12
= 12.5%

Thanks
