Step-by-step explanation:
If your Question was
"Raju bought 25 glasses for 50 each. He sold 10 of them at 360 each. Five glasses broke. The rest were sold at 390 each. Find the gain or loss per cent."
then,
Now, 25 glasses were bought for Rs.50
so, C.P. = 25 × 50 = Rs.1250
He sold 10 of them for Rs.360
So, S.P of 10 glasses = 360 × 10 = Rs.3600
5 glasses broke so those can't be sold
Now, glasses left = 25 - 10 - 5 = 10 glasses
So, he sold the rest for Rs.390
S.P of rest 10 glasses = 390 × 10 = Rs.3900
So, Total SP = 3900 + 3600 = Rs.7400
Total CP = Rs.1250
Profit = S.P - C.P
P = 7400 - 1250 = Rs.6150
Now, Profit percentage = (P/CP) × 100
P% = (6150/1250) × 100
P% = 492%
If your Question was
"Raju bought 25 glasses for 50 each. He sold 10 of them at 60 each. Five glasses broke. The rest were sold at 90 each. Find the gain or loss per cent."
then,
Now, 25 glasses were bought for Rs.50
so, C.P. = 25 × 50 = Rs.1250
He sold 10 of them for Rs.60
So, S.P of 10 glasses = 60 × 10 = Rs.600
5 glasses broke so those can't be sold
Now, glasses left = 25 - 10 - 5 = 10 glasses
So, he sold the rest for Rs.90
S.P of rest 10 glasses = 90 × 10 = Rs.900
So, Total SP = 900 + 600 = Rs.1400
Total CP = Rs.1250
Profit = S.P - C.P
P = 1400 - 1250 = Rs.150
Now, Profit percentage = (P/CP) × 100
P% = (150/1250) × 100
P% = 12%
Hope it helped and you understood it........All the best
