Answer 1

Given:-

•Cost Price of a suit case is 480 rupees.

•Selling Price of a suit case is 540 rupees.

To Find:-

•Gain percentage of a suit case

Solution:-

we have,

• CP = 480 rupees
• SP = 540 rupees

Now we will find Profit

Using Formula:

$\: \: \sf \: gain =selling \: price - cost \: price$

Now substitute the values,

$\: \: \sf \: gain = 540 - 480 \\ \\ \: \: \sf \: gain = 60 \: rupees$

Thenceforth,Gain of a suitcase is 60 rupees.

Now we will find gain percentage

Using Formula:

$\: \: \sf \: gain \: percent = \frac{gain}{cost \: price} \times 100$

Now substiute the values,

$\: \: \sf \: gain \: percent = \frac{60}{480} \times 100 \\ \\ \: \: \sf \: = 12.5 \: percent$

Henceforth,Gain percentage of a suit case is 12.5 percent.
