Question

Some article are bought at 2 for ₹15 and sold at ₹ 25. Find the gain percentage.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Gain % = 15.74 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Article bought at 2 for ₹ 15 .

So cost price of 1 article = ₹15/2

Articles sold at 3 for 25 ₹

So selling price for 1 article = ₹25/3

Profit per article = 25/3 - 15/2

Gain % = Profit × 100/ cost price

= (25/3 - 15/2) × 100/( 15/2)

%= (8.333 - 7.2) × 100/7.2

Gain % = 15.74%
