Question

Hari bought a toy for Rs340 and sold it for rs510. what he gain or loss in percentage?

Answer 1

Answer - 50%

Explaination :

=> Cost price of the toy = Rs. 340

=> Selling price of the toy = Rs. 510

=> SP > CP

∴ Its a gain

$= > gain \: percent = \frac{SP - CP}{CP} \times 100$

$= > \frac{510 - 340}{340} \times 100$

$= > \frac{170}{340} \times 100$

$= > \frac{17}{34} \times 100$

$= > \frac{1}{2} \times 100$

$= > 50 \: percent$

=> $\large{\green{\boxed{\green{\boxed{\red{\textsf{Gain=50\:percent }}}}}}}$

∴ He made a gain of 50%
