SSC CHSL 2024 PYQ — Question 70

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. $37{1\over2}$%.

Let the selling price of one item be x.

SP of 22 items = 22x

Given that, gain = SP of 6 items 

⇒ Gain = 6x

Now, CP = SP - Gain

⇒ CP = 22x - 6x 

⇒ CP = 16x

Now, Gain percentage = ${6x \over 16x} \times 100$ 

⇒ $37{1\over2}$%
