- #6Mohit sold a T.V. for Rs. 3,600; gaining one-sixth of its selling price. Find : (i) the gain (ii) the cost price of the T.V. (iii) the gain percent. (i) the gain (ii) the cost price of the T.V. (iii) the gain percent.Ans : S.P. of T.V. = Rs. 3,600
Gain = 1/6 of (3600) = 1/6 × 3600
= Rs. 600 (i) Thus gain = Rs. 600 (ii) Cost Price = 3600 - 600
= Rs. 3000 (iii) Gain % = 600/3000 × 100
= 60/3
= 20% (i) Thus gain = Rs. 600 (ii) Cost Price = 3600 - 600
= Rs. 3000 (iii) Gain % = 600/3000 × 100
= 60/3
= 20%
