Answer 1

hey buddy here is your answer

let the MRP on saree is = 900 RS

she bought it on price = 900*8/9 = 800 RS

now her neighbour pay her 9% more on MRP

which is = 900*9/100 = 81

900+81 = 981 RS

so total she gaining = 981 - 800 = 181 RS

on 800 RS she gaining 181 RS

800 RS is the value of = 100 %
1 RS is value of = 100/800%
981 RS is value of = 100/800*981 = 122.62 %

so total she getting is 122.62%

gain = total price - cost price

gain % = getting Amount - 100%

==> 122.62-100 = 22.62 % ( answer)
