1 ::A man sells a carpet for $70 and gains 10%. How much does it cost him?
Original cost
= $70/(1+10%)
= $70/110%
= $70/1.1
= $63.6364 (to 4 dec. place)
=======================================
2 ::Mr. Lee sells a car for $50,000 and gains 20%. How much does it cost him?
Original cost
= $50000/(1+20%)
= $50000/120%
= $50000/1.2
= $41666.6667 (to 4 dec. place)
=======================================
3 ::What is the selling price of an article costing $10 and being sold at a gain 10.5%?
Selling price
= $10 * (1+10.5%)
= $10 * 110.5%
= $10 * 1.105
= $11.05
=======================================
4 ::A merchant bought a dozen pens at $12. At what price must he sell them to make a gain of 20%?
Cost of a pen
= $12/12
= $1
Selling price of a pen
= $1 * (1+20%)
= $1 * 120%
= $1 * 1.2
= $1.2
Selling price of a dozen of pens
= $1.2 * 12
= $14.4
=======================================
5 ::A toy which cost $56 was sold at a gain of 12 %. Find the selling price.
Selling price

= $56 * 1.12
= $62.72
