Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

SP = (100 + Gain %) x C.P

100

hope this will help you

Answer 2

$\huge{\underline{\underline{\sf{AnSWeR}}}}$

S.P = Rs. 500, Gain = 5%

∴ C.P = (S.P. × 100)/(100 + gain %

$C.P. = \frac{S.P \times 100}{100 + gain\%} \\ = \frac{500 \times 100}{100 + 5}$

$C.P = Rs476.1$

Cost price (CP) =The amount for which an article is bought is called its cost price.

Selling price (SP)=The amount for which an article is sold is called its selling price.

Profit or gain=

When (SP) > (CP) then there is

Gain = (SP) - (CP)

Loss =

When (SP) < (CP) then there is

Loss = (CP) - (SP).

꧁Important Formulas꧂

I. Gain = (SP) - (CP)

II. Loss = (CP) - (SP)

III. Gain% = (gain / CP × 100)%

IV. Loss % = (loss/ CP × 100)%

V. To find SP when CP and gain% or loss% are given:

● SP = [(100 + gain %) / 100] × CP

● SP = {(100 - loss %) /100} × CP

VI. To find CP when SP and gain% or loss% are given:

● CP = {100/(100 + gain %)} × SP

● CP = {100 /(100 - loss %)} × SP
