Question

the selling price of 10 hens is the same as the cost price of 12 pens then gain percent is

1 point

2%

12%

20%

25%​

Answer 1

Answer:

The gain percent will be 12%

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let us consider the CP as x

SP of 1 pen = x/10

CP of 1 pen = x/12

Since SP is more than CP its Gain

Gain = SP – CP

= x/10 – x/12 = x/60

∴ Gain% = (Gain × 100) /CP

= ((x/60) × 100) / (x/12)

= 20%
