Susanta buys an old scooter for \(Rs. 4700\) and spends \(Rs. 800\) on its repairs. If he sells the scooter for \(Rs. 5800\), his gain percent is:

  • A.4(4/7) %
  • B.5(5/11) %
  • C.10 %
  • D.12 %

Answer: B

Cost Price (C.P.) \(= Rs. (4700 + 800) = Rs. 5500.\)

Selling Price (S.P.) \(= Rs. 5800.\)

Gain = (S.P.) - (C.P.) \(= Rs. (5800 - 5500) = Rs. 300.\)

Gain % \(= (\frac{300}{5500} \times 100)\)\(= 5\frac{5}{11}\)%
