A trader sells wire and gains 60% on the cost price. What will be the profit percentage on selling price?
Let cost price = Rs. 100
Profit = $$\frac{60}{100}\times100=Rs.$$ $$60$$
=> Selling price = $$100+60=Rs.$$ $$160$$
$$\therefore$$ Profit percentage on selling price = $$\frac{60}{160}\times100$$
= $$\frac{3}{8}\times100=37.5\%$$
=> Ans - (D)
