Answer 1

Answer:

17 1/3 % gain

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price of all the 25 tables is

=> 25× 450 = 11250 RS

now 16 of them sold at rate of 600 and remaining at 400 RS per table

it means

=> 16×600+ (25-16)×400

=> 9600+ 3600

=> 13200 rs

cost price of all furniture is 11250

and selling price is 13200

gain is = 13200-11250 = 1950 RS

gain %age is

=> 1950/11250×100

=> 1950×2/225

=> 3900/225 = 17 1/3

17 1/3 % profit
