cost price of 1 ball pen = 72/12 = 6

Answer 2

Answer:

The gain percentage is 33.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

We have,

Total CP of 12 pens = Rs 72

SP of each pem = Rs 8

Total SP of 12 pens = $12\times8 = 96$

So, profit =Total SP - Total SP

= 96 - 72

=24

So, gain percentage = $\frac{Profit}{CP} \times 100$

=$=\frac{24}{72} \times 100\\=\frac{100}{3} \\33.33\%$

So, The gain percentage is 33.33%
