Best Answer Explained in Below-:

To determine which product yields the maximum percentage of profit, we first need to calculate the profit and profit percentage for each product.

1. **Product A**:
- Cost Price (CP) = 200
- Selling Price (SP) = 250
- Profit = SP - CP = 250 - 200 = 50
- Profit Percentage = (Profit / CP) × 100 = (50 / 200) × 100 = 25%

2. **Product B**:
- Cost Price (CP) = 150
- Selling Price (SP) = 180
- Profit = SP - CP = 180 - 150 = 30
- Profit Percentage = (Profit / CP) × 100 = (30 / 150) × 100 = 20%

3. **Product C**:
- Cost Price (CP) = 100
- Selling Price (SP) = 110
- Profit = SP - CP = 110 - 100 = 10
- Profit Percentage = (Profit / CP) × 100 = (10 / 100) × 100 = 10%

After calculating the profit percentages, we find that Product A has a profit percentage of 25%, Product B has 20%, and Product C has 10%.

Given this information, the maximum profit percentage is for Product A, at 25%. Therefore, the correct answer is **C: A only**.
