A man buys an article for Rs. 27.50 and sells it for Rs 28.60. Find his gain percent

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Please note in this type of questions, get the value of 1 kg to solve this question, lets solve it.

C.P. of 1 Kg = 420/70 = Rs. 6
Selling Price = 6.50
Gain = Rs. 0.50

\begin{aligned}
Gain\% = \frac{.50}{6}*100 \\
= 8\frac{1}{3}\%
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the new S.P. be x, then.
(100 - loss%):(1st S.P.) = (100 + gain%):(2nd S.P.)

\begin{aligned}
=>\left( \frac{95}{1140} = \frac{105}{x} \right) \\

=> x = 1260
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Friends, we know we will need gain amount to get gain percent, right. So lets get gain first.

Let the cost price of 1 pen is Re 1
Cost of 8 pens = Rs 8
Selling price of 8 pens = 12
Gain = 12 - 8 = 4

\begin{aligned}
Gain\% = \left( \frac{Gain}{Cost} * 100 \right)\% \\
= \left( \frac{4}{8} * 100 \right)\% = 50\%
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

From the question it is clear that, Gain is 20%
From 1, it is clear that S.P. - C.P. = 40, so it is sufficient to get answer.
While 2 is not sufficient to get answer.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Please remember
\begin{aligned}
S.P. = \left( \frac{100+gain\%}{100} * C.P \right)\\
\text{So, C.P. = }\left( \frac{100}{110} * 25.75 \right)\\
\text{When S.P. = 25.75 then } \\
Profit = 25.75 - 25 = Re. 0.75 \\

Profit\% = \frac{0.75}{25} * 100 = 3\%

\end{aligned}
