Question

Example 6: A shopkeeper purchased 200 bulbs for 10 each. However 5 bulbs
were fused and had to be thrown away. The remaining were sold at * 12 each. Find the
gain or loss %.​

Answer 1

Answer:

17% profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bulbs when brought before fusing: 200*10=Rs. 2000.

Bulbs when got fused: (200-5)*12=195*12=Rs. 2340.

2000/100=20 (is the value of unit 1).

2340-2000=340

340/20=17%.

So, 17% profit was there for shopkeeper.
