Answer 1

✬ Gain % = 4 % ✬

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

• Cost price of saree is Rs 6250.
• Amount spent on repairing is Rs 375.
• Selling price of saree is Rs 6890.

To Find:

• What is her gain or loss percent?

Solution: Here total C.P of saree will be

• Original cost + amount spent on repairing

➟ Rs (6250 + 375)

➟ Rs 6625 (Total cost price)

Now on comparing both C.P and S.P

• S.P > C.P (Here is profit)

★ Profit = S.P – C.P ★

➬ Profit = Rs (6890 – 6625)

➬ Rs 265

★ Profit % = (Profit/C.P × 100)

➬ Profit % = 265/6625 × 100

➬ 26500/6625

➬ 4 %

Hence, gain percent made by her is 4 %.
