Solution

Step 1: Find the cost price of fans:
The Cost price of $10$ fans $= 1250 \times 10$
$= ₹ 12500$
Step 2: Find the selling price of fans:
The Selling price of $6$ fans $= 6 \times 1375$
$= ₹ 8250$
The Selling price of the remaining $4$ fans $= 4 \times 1200$
$= ₹ 4800$
$∴$ Total Selling price $= 8250 + 4800$
$= ₹ 13050$
Here, the selling price is more than the cost price.
Step 3: Find the profit:
$Profit = Selling Price - Cost Price$
$= 13050 - 12500$
$= ₹ 550$
Therefore, he gains a profit of $₹ 550$
