Question

.Sudhir bought an almirah for RS 13600 and spent RS 400 on its transportation. He sold it for RS 16800 .Find his gain percent.

Plz help me

Answer 1

C.P = 13600

since he  spent 400.

Now C.P  =  13600 + 400 = 14000

S.P = 16800

S.p   >  C.P

So

gain = 16800 - 14000 = 2800

Gain % = 2800 /14000 x 100 % =  20 %

Answer 2

Solutions :-



Given :

Sudhir bought an almirah for Rs 13600
Spent on transportation = Rs 400
Total cost price of Almirah = Rs (13600 + 400)
= Rs 14000

Selling price of Almirah = Rs 16800



Here, Selling Price is greater than the Cost Price. Therefore, Gain .


Gain = (S.P - C.P)
= Rs (16800 - 14000)
= Rs 2800


Gain percent = (Gain × 100)/C.P %
= (2800 × 100)/14000 %
= 280000/14000 %
= 20 %



Hence,
His Gain percent is 20%.
