Answer 1

• Gain percent is 25%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find:-

• Gain percent.

Solution:-

Given that,

Selling price is Rs.100

Gain is Rs.20

• First we will find cost price for gain percent.

Gain = Selling price - Cost Price.

• Gain is profit.

• Cost price is the original price of something.

• Selling price is the price by which something is selled.

➝20 = 100 - Cost Price

➝ 100 - 20 = Cost Price

➝ 80 = Cost price

Cost Price is Rs.80.

Gain percent = Gain/cost price × 100

➝ 20/80 × 100

➝ 0.25 × 100

➝ 25

Therefore,

Gain percent is 25%.
