Question

if 140 mangoes are sold at the cost Price of 175 . find the gain percent

Answer 1

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let say cost price of 1 mango = c

Cost price of 175 mangoes = 175c

Selling price of 140 mangoes = 175c

Selling price of 1 mango = 175c/140

Profit on 1 mango = 175c/140 - c

= 35c/140

= c/4

Profit % = {(c/4)/(c)}×100 = 25%
