✪ Question ✪
When Sita sells 48 pieces of ladies soap, she gains the selling price of 12 soaps. Find the gain percentage.
✪ Given ✪
When Sita sells 48 pieces of ladies soap, she gains the selling price of 12 soaps.
✪ To find ✪
The gain percentage.
✪ Solution ✪
Let the SP of 1 soap be ₹ 1.
So, SP of 48 soaps = ₹ (1 × 48) = ₹ 48
Gain = SP of 12 soaps = ₹ (1 × 12) = ₹ 12
So, CP = SP - Gain
= ₹ (48 - 12)
= ₹ 36
So, Gain % = Gain/CP × 100
= (12/36 × 100) %
= (100/3) %
= 33 ⅓ %
✪ Hence ✪
Gain % = 33 ⅓ %
✪ Therefore ✪
The gain percentage is 33 ⅓ %.
