Q u e s t i o n : 4
Sudhir bought an almirah for Rs 13600 and spent Rs 400 on its transportation. He sold it for Rs 16800. Find his gain
per cent.
S o l u t i o n :
Cost price of an almirah = Rs. 13600
Transportation cost = Rs. 400
Total cost price = Rs. 13600 +400
= Rs. 14000
Selling price = Rs. 16800
Now, SP > CP
Gain = SP - CP =

Q u e s t i o n : 5
Ravi purchased an old house for Rs 765000 and spent Rs 115000 on its repairs. Then, he sold it at a gain of 5%.
How much did he get?
S o l u t i o n :
Cost price of the house = Rs. 765000
Cost  of repairing the house = Rs. 115000
Total Cost price = 765000 +115000
= Rs. 880000

FAQs on RS Aggarwal Solutions: Profit & Loss - Mathematics (Maths) Class 7

1. What is profit and loss in mathematics?
Ans. Profit and loss is a concept in mathematics that deals with the calculation of the gain or loss made in a business transaction. It involves calculating the difference between the selling price and the cost price of an item or service.
2. How do you calculate profit and loss?
Ans. To calculate profit, you subtract the cost price from the selling price. If the result is positive, it is a profit. If the result is negative, it is a loss. The formula for profit is Profit = Selling Price - Cost Price.
3. Can you give an example of calculating profit and loss?
Ans. Sure! Let's say you bought a shirt for $20 and sold it for $30. To calculate the profit, you subtract the cost price from the selling price: $30 - $20 = $10. So, in this case, you made a profit of $10.
4. What is the difference between gross profit and net profit?
Ans. Gross profit is the difference between the total revenue and the cost of goods sold. It represents the profit made before deducting any other expenses. Net profit, on the other hand, is the final profit after deducting all expenses, including taxes and operating costs.
5. How is profit and loss related to everyday life?
Ans. Profit and loss calculations are used in various aspects of everyday life. For example, when buying and selling goods, calculating discounts, or determining the financial performance of a business. Understanding profit and loss helps individuals make informed decisions regarding their personal finances and business transactions.
