Question

A man buy 10 articles for rs 8 and sell them for 1.25 per article find fain

Answer 1

Cost price of 10 article = Rs 8

Selling price of 1 article = Rs 1.25

Selling price of 10 article = 10 × 1.25

= Rs 12.5

Gain = 12.5 - 8 = Rs 4.5

Gain percent = Gain × 100 /Cost price

= 4.5 × 100 / 8

= 4.5 × 25 /2

= 4.5 × 12.5

= 56.25 %

Answer 2

Cost Price=Rs 80

SP=10*1.25=Rs 1 25

Gain=125-80=Rs 45

Gain %=45/80*100=56.25%
