Question

A shopkeeper bought 1000 glass tumblers at rs 8 each. 100 glass tumblers were broken and he sold the rest at rs 10 each. Find his gain or loss precent

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

C.P of all tumblers = 1000*8

= Rs. 8000

Remaining tumblers = 1000 - 100

= 900

S.P of tumblers = 900*10

= Rs. 9000

Profit = S.P - C.P

= 9000 - 8000

= Rs. 1000

Profit % = (Profit/C.P)*100

= (1000/8000)*100

= 12.5%

Answer 2

Answer:

Cp of 1000glass =8000

100were broken =8000-800=7200

now there were 900 glass tumblers left he sold at rs10 each =9000

there for sp is bigger than cp

P in rs =9000-8000=1000

1000=p%of co

1000=p/100 *8000

answer12.5%
