    Megha bought 10 note-books for Rs.40 and sold them at Rs.4.75 per note-book. Find, her gain percent.
    Ans : C.P. of 10 note-books = Rs. 40
    S.P. of 10 note-books@ Rs. 4.75 per note-book
    = 4.75 × 10
    = Rs. 47.50
    Gain = S.P. - C.P.
    = Rs 47.50 - Rs 40 = Rs 7.50
    Gain% = Gain/C.P. × 100
    = 7.50/40 × 100
    = 750/40%
    = 75/4%
    = 18 3/4%
