Question

cycle was purchased for rupees 1120 and sold for rupees 1260 find the gain and the gain percent​

Answer 1

Answer:

12 7/14%

Step-by-step explanation:

Cp= 1120

Sp= 1260

gain= sp- cp

1260- 1120= 140

gain%= gain/cp * 100

140/1120 * 100

= 175/14

= 12 7/14 %

Answer 2

Answer:

Cost price (CP)= Rs 1120

Selling price (SP) = Rs 1260

gain = SP - CP = 1260 - 1120 = Rs 140

Gain % = gain / CP × 100 = 140 / 1120 × 100 = 100 / 8 = 12.5 %
