Answers
Hey...!!!
S.P of an article = rs 3600
Profit % = 20%
So, C.P = SP (100 /100 + profit)
= 3600 ( 100/100 + 20)
= 3600 x 100/120
= 3000
So, C.P = rs 3000
S.P = rs 4000
So, profit = S.P - C.P
= 4000 - 3000
= 1000
So,profit % = profit /C.P x 100
= 1000/3000 x 100
= 33.333 %
Hope it helps...!!!

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
When SP and Profit% are given CP can be calculated by-
CP= SP * 100 divided by 100 + Profit% - SP * 100 / 100 + Profit%
3600*100 / 100 + 220 = 3600*100=360000 and 100+220=320
360000 / 320 = 115200000 which is simplified as Rs.1152.
What would be his gain% be if he sold the article for Rs.4000?
Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
CP= Rs.1152 SP= Rs.4000
Therefore, Profit= 4000-1152= Rs.1696
Profit%= (1696*100)% divided by (/) CP
=(1696*100)% divided by (/) 1152
=1696*100=169600
= 169600 / 1152= 147.2 (not sure or 1.47) is the gain percent.
hope it is clear pls add me and sorry the last part ws a little confusing for me.
