Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of his gain percentage is shown below:

Data provided in the question

Number of mangoes bought = 8

Purchase price of 8 mango = 160

Sale value of each mango = 25

Based on the above information, the sale value of each 8 mangoes is

= 25 × 8

= 200

Now the profit percentage is

= (Sale value - purchase value) ÷ (purchase value)

= (200 - 160) ÷ (160)

= 25%
