can i get the answers of R.S Aggarwal of class 9th?

Let x = cost price and g= actual gain percentage.
Then profit = g% of x =gx/100
So, selling price = cost price + profit=78
x+gx100=78100x+g100=78 ...(1)
New gain = 20% more than g = 20+g
selling price = cost price + profit=83
x+(20+g)x100=83100x+gx+20x100=83100x+gx100+20x100=8378+20x100=83 (from (1))20x100=83-78=5x=5*10020=50020=Rs. 25
