Answer

The answer is 20%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price of the article = 200

Selling price of the article = 240

Gain = 240 - 200 = 40

Gain percent = Gain / Cost Price * 100

Hence, 40 / 200 * 100 = 40 / 2 (by cancelling zero's from 100 and 200) = 20%

Therefore, The gain percent in the sale is 20%.
