Question

A shopkeeper bought a table for Rs. $800$ and sold it for Rs. $1000$. The gain percent is

• A. $25\%$
• B. $20\%$
• C. $10\%$
• D. $15\%$

Answer 1

The correct option is A

$25\%$

C.P. of table $=$Rs. $800$

S.P of table $=$Rs. $1000$

Gain $=$S.P. $-$C.P.

Gain $=1000-800$

Gain $=$Rs. $200$

Gian% $=$$\frac{\mathrm{Gain}}{\mathrm{C}.\mathrm{P}.}\times 100$ $=\frac{200}{800}\times 100$

Gain% = $25\%$

The correct option is A
