Answer 1

Answer:

275

Step-by-step explanation:

10% of 250:

250/100

=2.5

=2.5*10

=25

so 10% of 250 is 25!

so, to gain 10% extra, he should sell it for:

250+25= 275

so the man should sell the box for 275

hope this helped!

Answer 2

Given :

• Cost Price of box = Rs. 250
• Required gain% = 10%

To Find :

• Find the selling price of the box to get 10% gain ?

Solution :

According to the question :

• Selling Price = (100 + Gain%/100) × Cost Price

➣ Selling Price = (100 + 10/100) × 250

➣ Selling Price = (110/100) × 250

➣ Selling Price = (11/10) × 250

➣ Selling Price = 11/10 × 250

➣ Selling Price = 11 × 25

➣ Selling Price = Rs. 275

Hence,

• He should sell the box for Rs. 275 to gain 10%.
