 By selling an article for ₹4,824, a man gains 20%. What will be his profit percentage(rounded off to the nearest integer) if he sells it for ₹6,000?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 49%.

Selling price = ₹4824, Gain = 20%

So, Cost price = 4824 / 1.20 = ₹4020

New selling price = ₹6000

Profit = 6000 – 4020 = ₹1980

Profit % = (1980 / 4020) × 100 ≈ 49%
