If the cost price of 12 pencils is equal to sale price of 10 pencils, then find the gain or loss as a percentage of the sell price ?
-
- 20% gain
- 10% gain
- 20% gain
- 15% loss
Correct Option: A
CP of 12 pencils = Rs. 12
∴ SP of 10 pencils = Rs.12
⇒ SP of 12 Pencils = (12/10) x 12 = Rs.14.40
∴ Gain per cent = {(14.40 - 12)/12} x 100 = 20%
