A shopkeeper purchases supplies from a supplier. The supplier sells 750 units of bags to the shopkeeper after gaining the sale price of 125 units of bags. What is the gain percentage of the supplier?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 20%

 

Let the price of 1 unit of bag = Rs 1

SP of suppilier = 750 units = Rs 750

Gain = C P - S P 

125 = C P - 750

C P = Rs 625

Gain % = ( Gain/ CP ) × 100 = (125/625) × 100 = 20%
