Q. Eleven bags are bought for Rs.1000 and sold at 10 for Rs.1100. What is the gain or loss in percentage?- Published on 06 Jul 15a. 10%
b. 21%
c. 25%
d. 20%
ANSWER: 21%
As selling price is Rs.1100 for 10 bags, each bag is sold at Rs.110.
Hence, the profit is Rs.100 after selling 10 bags plus the selling price of 1 bag = 100 + 110 = Rs.210.
%profit = 210/1000 *100
= 21%
