A shopkeeper purchased a television for ₹4400 and spent some money on it. It was further sold for ₹6000. Find his overhead expenses, If the overall gain is 25% in this transaction.

Answer 1

$125 = 6000 \\ 100 = x$
we get,

X=4800

overhead expense= X- buying price
=4800-4400
=400

Ans. 400

Answer 2

(4400+x)125/100=6000

then x (other expanses)=4000
