Bello buys an old bicycle for ₦9,200.00 and spends ₦1,500.00 on its repairs. If he sells the bicycle for ₦13,400.00, his gain percent is

A.

25.23%

B.

31.34%

C.

88.81%

D.

42.54%

Correct answer is A

Total cost price = ₦9,200.00 + ₦1,500.00 = ₦10,700.00

Selling price = ₦13,400.00

Gain = ₦13,400.00 - ₦10,700.00 = ₦2,700.00

∴ % gain = \(\frac{₦2,700.00}{₦10,700.00}\times\) 100% = 25.23%
