Answer:

hiiii

your answer is here !

Step-by-step explanation:

Given selling price = $135

Loss % = 10%

We know, cost price = selling price × 100/100 - loss%

= 135 × 100/100 - 10

= 135 × 100/90

= 13500/90

= 150

Therefore, cost price of the bicycle = $150

Now, if the selling price = $165, then gain = $165 - $150 = $15

Therefore, gain% = gain/cost price × 100

= 15/150 × 100

= 1500/150

= 10%

Therefore, he would have gained 10%.
