Answer 2

Given:

Let the C.P. of the goods be Rs.100.

As the trader gains 10% at the time of buying, the shopkeeper buys the articles worth Rs.110.

$S.P. = Rs.\frac{110\times(100+25)}{100}$

$S.P. = Rs.\frac{11\times125}{10}$

$S.P. = Rs.\frac{1375}{10}$

SP=Rs.137.5

$\% gain=\frac{137.5-100}{100}\times100$

%gain=137.5-100

%gain = 37.5%

Hence the answer is 37.5%
