Question

By selling an article for Rs.100 man gains Rs.15 . His gain% is what

Answer 1

Given Selling price = 100, Gain =15.

We know that Cost price = Selling price - Gain

                                          = 100 - 15

                                          = 85.



We know that Gain% = Gain/CP * 100

                                   = 15/85 * 100

                                   = 17.64.


Therefore the Gain% = 17.64.


Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

selling price (S.P)=100

Profit=15,

then cost price will be 85

(cost price =selling price-profit)

Profit % =Profit in Rs.÷Cost price×100

Profit %=15÷85×100

=17.64%
