By selling an article for ₹2352, one gains ₹752. What is the gain percent?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 47%.

C.P. = S.P. - Gain

⇒ C.P. = 2352 - 752

⇒ C.P. = Rs.1600

Profit% = (Profit/C.P.) × 100

⇒ Profit% = 752/1600 × 100

⇒ Profit% = 752/16 

⇒ Profit = 47%
