Question

It a cycle is sold for rs 17250 there is again of rs 2250. what is the gain percentage ​

Answer 1

Answer:

15%

Step-by-step explanation:

profit=sp -cp

cp=sp-profit

=17250-2250

=15000

profit%= profit amount/cp *100%

=2250/15000×100

= 15

Answer 2

Answer:

$\boxed{ \boxed{ \sf{ \bold{ \purple{15\%}}}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

SP ( Selling price ) = Rs 17250

Profit ( P ) = Rs 2250

CP ( Cost price ) = Rs 17250 - Rs 2250 = Rs 15000

Now, let's find the profit / gain percentage :

Profit % = $\sf{ \frac{profit}{cost \: price} \times 100\%}$

plug the values

⇒$\sf{ \frac{2250}{15000} \times 100\%}$

Calculate

⇒$\sf{15\%}$

▪$\underline{ \underline{ \sf{ \blue{What \: is \: the \: formula \: to \: find \: profit \: percent \: and \: loss \: percent?}}}}$

We know that , profit and loss are calculated on cost price ( CP ). So, profit percent and loss percent can be calculated by using the following formula :

$\boxed{ \sf{Loss\% \: = \frac{cp - sp}{cp} \times 100\%}}$

$\boxed{ \sf{ \bold{Profit\% \: = \: \frac{sp \: - \: cp}{cp} \times 100}}}$

Hope I helped!
