Answer 2

Answer:

40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the CP of 1 pen be Rs x

Then,

CP of 14 pens will be 14 × x = 14x

And

CP of 14 pens = SP of 10 pens

Hence,

SP of 10 pens =14x

Then,,

SP of 1 pen = 14x ÷ 10 = 1.4x

Gain=SP − CP.= 1.4x − x = Rs 0.4x

Gain(%) = gain  /  CP ×100  

 =   0.4x / x  × 100 = 40%
