Question

Raju bought a pen for Rs. $5$ and sold it to Krishna for Rs. $10$. His gain percentage is

• A. $25\%$
• B. $50\%$
• C. $100\%$
• D. $200\%$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$\left(100\%\right)$

Given, cost price(C.P) $=Rs.5$ and selling price(S.P) $=Rs.10$
Since, S.P$>$C.P
So, Gain amount $=$S.P$-$C.P
$=10-5$
$=Rs.5$
%Gain $=\frac{Gain}{C.P}\times 100$
$=\frac{5}{5}\times 100$
$=100\%$
Therefore, gain percent $=100\%$
