Question

a man bought 27 table for rs 5940 and sold them at a gain equal to SP of 5 tables find gain percent​

Answer 1

Answer:

Gain percent =22.72%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

SP of one chair = ₹1

SP of 27 chairs = ₹27

Gain on 27 chairs = SP of 27 chairs - CP of 27 chairs

SP of 5 chairs = SP of 27 chairs - CP of 27 chairs

⇒ ₹5 = ₹27 - CP of 27 chairs

⇒ CP of 27 chairs = ₹(27-55) = ₹22

Gain percent=Gain/CostPrice×100

Gain percent=5/22×100=22.72%

Gain percent=22.72%
