Answer 1

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume the cost price of the almirah to be x. A 12% profit means the sale price 3920 is actually 100%+12% of the cost price i.e.

$112\%x = 3920 \\ \frac{112x}{100} = 3920 \\ x = \frac{3920 \times 100}{112} \\ x = 3500 \\ cost \: price = x = 3500$

Now, we have thw actual cost price. We can calculate the profit p and then the percentage of profit as follows:

$profit = sale \: price - cost \: price \\ profit = 4375 - 3500 \\ profit = 875 \\ \%profit = \frac{profit}{cost \: price} \times 100 \\ \%profit = \frac{875}{3500} \times 100 \\ \%profit = 25\%$

Hence, the profit or gain is 25%.
