Answer:
20% profit
Step-by-step explanation:
GIVEN
Cost price of radio is equal to marked price
selling price is 20% more than marked price.
TO FIND
Profit(gain) percentage= ?
FORMULA
Profit= sp-cp
and profit % =profit/cp × 100%
SOLUTION
Let the marked price of radio=x
then,cost price of radio(c.p)= x
selling price of radio(s.p)= x+20% of x [by quest
= x+(20×x)/100
= x+x/5
=(5x+x)/5
=6x/5
therefore,profit= sp-cp
=6x/5 -x
=(6x-5x)/5
=x/5
profit%= profit/cp × 100%
=(x/5)/x ×100%
=(x ×100%)/5x
= 20%
