Question

the amount that a gardener receives on selling180 seedling is as same as he had paid to buy 240 seedling.what is the gardener's gain percentage?

Answer 1

Answer: 33.33 % or 33 1/3%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given. SP of 180 seedling = CP of 240 seedling.

Let CP of 1 seedling = Re. 1

240 seedling = 240 Rs.

Hence, SP of 180 = Rs. 240

CP of 180 = Rs. 180

Gain = SP - CP = 240 - 180 = 60

Gain % = Gain/CP * 100

            = 60/180 * 100 = 1/3 * 100 = 33 1/3 % or 33.33 %

ALTERNATE:

180 SP = 240 CP

CP/SP = 180/240 = 18/24

CP : SP = 18 : 24

Gain = 6

Gain % = 6/18 * 100 = 33.33% or 33 1/3 %
