If a commission of 20% is given on the written price, the gain is 60%. What will be the percentage of gain if the commission is increased to 25%?
A0.5
B0.37
C0.62
D0.8

Answer is :  0.5

Let the written price = Rs.100
commission = Rs.20
selling price = 100-20 = Rs.80

gain = 60%
cost price =\(80 \times 100 \over 160\) =  Rs.50

if the commission is increased to 25%,
selling price = 100-25 = Rs.75

new gain =\((75−50)\over 50\)=\(25 \over 50\)=0.5
