    Question

    A vendor bought 120 shirts at the rate of Rs. 375 per shirt and sold them for Rs. 48,600. What is his gain/loss percentage?

    A.

    Gain 8%

    B.

    Loss 12%

    C.

    Loss 8%

    D.

    Gain 12%

    Correct option is A

    Given:
    Cost price per shirt = Rs. 375
    Number of shirts = 120
    Selling price = Rs. 48,600
    Formula Used:
    Gain %=GainCost Price×100\text{Gain \%}=\frac{\text{Gain}}{\text{Cost Price}}\times100​​
    Solution:
    Total cost price = 120 × 375 = Rs. 45,000
    Gain = 48,600 - 45,000 = Rs. 3,600
    Gain %  =360045000×100=8%=\frac{3600}{45000}\times100=8\%​​
