Answer:

HI GUYS,

YOUR ANSWER IS HERE

BUYS SCOOTER = 16000

AND SELLS = 18500

FORMULA USED

GAIN% = 100 X (S.P - C.P) / C.P

PROOF:-

40% = 100 X (18500 - (16000 + X)) / 16000 + X

2 / 5 =  ( 2500 - X) / 16000 + X

5(2500 - X) = 2(16000 + X)

12500 - 5X = 32000 + 2X

12500 - 32000 = 2X + 5X

19500 = 7X

X = 19500 / 7

X = 2785.7
