    his gain as percent; (ii) the number of articles sold to make a profit of Rs.75. (ii) the number of articles sold to make a profit of Rs.75.
    Ans : Gain = S.P. - C.P.
    = Rs. 540 - Rs 450
    = Rs. 90
    ∴ Gain = Gain/C.P. × 100
    = 90/450 × 100
    = 100/5
    = 20% (ii) To make a profit of Rs. 90, the number of articles needed to be sold = 60
    To make a profit of Re. 1 the number of articles needed to be sold = 60/90
    To make a profit of Rs. 75, the number of articles needed to be sold = 60/90 × 75
    = 4500/90
    = 50 (ii) To make a profit of Rs. 90, the number of articles needed to be sold = 60
    To make a profit of Re. 1 the number of articles needed to be sold = 60/90
    To make a profit of Rs. 75, the number of articles needed to be sold = 60/90 × 75
    = 4500/90
    = 50
