Answers
If the cost price of 20 dresses is equal to the selling price of 15 dresses, then the gain percent is 33.34%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the C.P of 1 dress be Rs. “x”.
Then, C.P. 20 dresses will be = Rs. 20x
And, C.P. of 15 dresses will be = Rs. 15x …. (i)
Since we are given that the C.P of 20 dresses = S.P. of 15 dresses.
∴ S.P. of 15 dresses = Rs. 20x …. (ii)
Thus, substituting the values from (i) & (ii), we get
The gain percent will be,
= [(S.P.– C.P.)/C.P.] * 100
= [(20x – 15x)/15x] * 100
= [5/15] * 100
= 33.34%
