- The helmet is initially sold at Rs 1,650 with a 10% profit.

- The cost price (CP) can be calculated as follows:

- If 1,650 is 110% (100% cost + 10% profit),

- Then the CP = (1,650 / 110) x 100 = Rs 1,500.

- Now, if the selling price is Rs 2,100,

- Profit = Selling Price - Cost Price = 2,100 - 1,500 = Rs 600.

- Calculate profit percentage:

- Profit Percentage = (Profit / Cost Price) x 100

- Profit Percentage = (600 / 1,500) x 100 = 40%

- Option:3, 40% is the correct answer.
