SSC MTS - 23/10/2024 - (12:30 PM - 2:30 PM) • Quantitative Aptitude • Q20

Find the gain percentage, given that Nidhi sold her scooter for ₹80442 gaining 161\over6th of the selling price.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

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

Gain = 161\over6 of selling price = 161\over6 × 80442 = 13407

Cost price = Selling price − Gain = 80442 − 13407 = 67035

Formula: Gain % = (Gain ÷ Cost price) × 100

Gain % = (13407 ÷ 67035) × 100 = 20%
