Detailed Solution

Given that, C.P is Rs. 2400 and S.P is Rs. 2592.
We have the following formula:
S.P=selling price.
C.P=cost price.
Gain=S.P-C.P
Gain%= S.PC.P C.P ×100  
Loss=C.P-S.P
Loss%= C.PS.P C.P ×100   The gain percentage is,
= 25922400 2400 ×100 = 192 2400 ×100 =8   The gain is 8%.
Hence, the correct option is 4.
