विकल्प
`33 1/3%`
35%
`22 2/9%`
30%
उत्तर
`33 1/3%`
Explanation:
Let us consider a packet of rice marked 1 kg.
its actual weight is 90% of 1000 gm = 900 gm
Let C.P. of each gm = ₹ 1
Then, C.P. of this packet = ₹ 900
S.P. of this packet = 120% of C.P. of 1 kg
`=120/100xx1000`
= 1200
∴ Gain%`=(300/900xx100)%=33 1/3%`
