Profit: If Selling Price of an item is more than Cost Price , then vendor is said to have a Profit.
Loss: if Selling Price of an item is less than Cost Price, the vendor said to have a Loss.

Formulas

Profit = SP – CP
Profit % = Profit/(CP)×100
SP = ((100+Profit% )/100)×CP
CP = (100/(100+Profit%))×SP

Loss = CP – SP
Loss% = Loss/(CP)×100
SP = ((100-loss%)/100)×CP
CP = (100/(100-loss%))×SP

Examples:

1. The cost price of 40 apples is the same as the selling price of 25 apples. Find the gain percent.
