Question

On selling an almira for ₹20350a man gains 10 percent . what percent does he gain on selling the same for ₹19610​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If S.P=20,350

gain is 10%

⇒110% of C.P is 20,350

100

110

×C.P=20,350

⇒C.P=18,500

If S.P is 19610,

the gain %=

$\frac{profit}{cost \: price} \times 100$

$= \frac{(19610 - 18500)}{18500} \times 100 \\ = \frac{1110}{18500} \times 100 \\ = 6$

∴ If he sells at 19,610, gain % will be 6%.
