Question

on selling hundred pencils a man gains the selling price of 20 princess his gain percentage is equal​

Answer 1

Answer:

.....

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the S.P. of one pencil = ₹1

S.P of 20 pencils= ₹ 20

Gain = S.P of 20 pencils = ₹20(given)

S.P of 100 pencils = ₹ 100

C.P of 100 pencils = S.P - profit

= 100 - 20= 80

C.P of 100 pencils = ₹ 80

Gain % = (gain / C.P)×100

Gain % =( 20/80)×100

Gain % = 2000/80= 200/8= 50/2= 25%

Hence, the gain% = 25%
