  1. Richa purchased an article at (4 / 5) of its list price and sold it at 20% more than the list price. Richa’s profit percent was
    1. 50%
    2. 40%
    3. 30%
    4. 25%
Correct Option: A

Let list price of article = $ 100

∴ CP for Richa = 100 ×
4
= $ 80
5

∴ S.P. for Richa = $ 120
∴ Gain = 120 – 80 = $ 40
∴ Gain percent =
40
× 100 = 50%
80
