Question

A fan is sold for ₹650.The gain is one-fourth of the cost price of the fan. Find the gain percent.​

Answer 1

Answer: 25%

Step-by-step explanation: selling proce = 650₹

Let cost proce be x₹

So the gain = x/4

Selling price = x + x/4. = 5x/4

So 5x/4 = 650

5x = 2600

X = 520

So gain = 520/4 = 130

So gain percent = (130/520) * 100

= 100/4

= 25%

Answer 2

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:1/4 x 650=162.50

Hence gain is ₹162.50

Gain per cent =  Gain/CP x 100

                       = 162.50 x 100/650

                       = 16250/650

                       = 25

Therefore Gain per cent is 25%
