Correct Answer: 11.11%


Solution : Ajay buys a scooter for Rs. 7560
Spends on repairing = Rs. 540
Total cost price = 7560 + 540 = 8100
Selling price = Rs. 9000
Gain = selling price – cost price = 9000 – 8100 = 900
Gain percentage = $\frac{\text{Selling price – Cost price}}{\text{Cost price}}×100=\frac{900}{8100}\times100= 11.11\%$
Hence, the correct answer is 11.11%.
