Question

Sudhir brought an almirah for $Rs.13600$ and spent $Rs.400$ on its transportation. He sold it for $Rs.16800$. Find his gain percent.

Answer 1

Cost of almirah $=Rs.13600$

cost of transportation $=Rs.400$

Total $C.P=13600+400$

$=RS.14000$

$S.P=Rs.16,800$

$Gain=S.P-C.P$

$=16800-14000=Rs.2800$

$Gain\%=$ $\frac{2800}{14000}\times 100.$

$=20\%$
