Correct Answer: 4%


Solution : The total cost of the AC, including transportation = Rs. 28500 + Rs. 600 = Rs. 29100
The selling price of the AC = Rs. 30264
$\text{Gain percentage} = \left(\frac{\text{Selling Price} - \text{Cost Price}}{\text{Cost Price}}\right) \times 100$
$= \left(\frac{30264 - 29100}{29100}\right) \times 100$
$= \left(\frac{1164}{29100}\right) \times 100$
$= \left(\frac{1}{25}\right) \times 100$
$= 4$%
Hence, the correct answer is 4%.
