===========================
this is a very easy question

A dishonest shopkeeper professes to sell pulses at his cost price but uses a false weight of 950 grams for each kilogram 

1 kilo =1000 grams

gain =1000 - 950 

          = 50 grams

now gain  %= $\frac{gain *100}{950}$

                = 5000/950

                  = 5.26......%

                = 5.3%
