Option 4 : 100%

Weight of onions bought by customer = 1 kg

Actual weight of onions received by customer = 750 g = 0.75 kg

Price paid by the customer = Rs. 30

Actual price of 0.75 kg = 0.75 × 20 = Rs. 15

∴ Money earned by the shopkeeper = 30 – 15 = Rs. 15

∴ Profit percentage = (15/15) × 100 = 100%
