Question

A shopkeeper marked a 1kg packet of basmati rice 40% above the cost price and offered it a discount of 15%. find his gain percent.​

Answer 1

Answer:

19%

Step-by-step explanation:

let's say cost price is 100

so marked 40% so it will become 140

so and he is giving 15% discount on marked price so 15%on 140= 21rs

so 140-21=119rs

that means his gain =19

so gain percentage =19/100*100=19%
