total cost = 6000
and sold price =42000
there for percentage of profit
42000x100/6000
=> 700%

Answer 2

Answer:

600%

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price of machine = Rs.3600

She also spent 2400 rupees on its repair

New C.P. = Rs.3600+Rs.2400

New C.P. = Rs.6000

Now she sold it for 42000 rupees

So, S.P. =Rs.42000

S.P.>C.P

So, she faced a profit

Profit = S.P.-C.P.

Profit = Rs.42000- Rs.6000 = Rs.36000

So. Profit% = $\frac{Profit}{CP}\times 100$

Profit% = $\frac{36000}{6000}\times 100$

Profit% = $600\%$

Hence Gain percent is 600%.
