Question

Vikas buys an old bike for Rs.30,000 and spends Rs.5,000 on its repairs. If he sells the bike for Rs.42000, his gain percentage is:

A.

18%

B.

20%

C.

17%

D.

19%

Correct option is B

Given
Selling price of bike  = Rs 42,000
Cost price of  bike = Rs 30,000 + Rs.5000
Formula used
Profit = Selling Price - Cost Price
Solution:
Cost price = 30,000 + 5,000
= Rs. 35000
Selling price = Rs 42,000
Profit = Rs. (42,000 - 35,000)
= Rs. 7,000
Profit percentage = 700035000\frac{7000}{35000}​ × 100
=  20%
Thus, correct option is (b).
