Question

Gain % =?, if C.P = rupees 400 and gain is rupees 24.

Answer 1

$\underline \bold{Solution:-}$

C.P. is also known as the cost price . It is the original price of a particular object/substance.

C.P. = 400 rupees

Gain is defined as the difference between S.P. and C.P. of the object.

Gain = 24 rupees

We have to find out the gain percentage.

$gain \: \% = \frac{gain}{c.p.} \times 100 \\ \\ = \frac{24}{400} \times 100 \\ \\ = \frac{24}{4} \\ \\ = 6\%$

So, there is the gain of 6%.

Answer 2

CP = 400 , gain = 24 and gain % = ?




Gain% = Gain/CP × 100


Gain % = 24/400 × 100 = 6 %
