The % gain ( or loss ) is:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+%28%28+p+-+c+%29+%2F+c%29%2A100+\"$ where
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+p+\"$ = selling price
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+c+\"$ = cost
\n" ); document.write( "( for a certain numberof items )
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "For convienence, I will say that the cost
\n" ); document.write( "price of 11 shirts is $110.
\n" ); document.write( "That means the cost of 10 shirts is
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+%2810%2F11%29%2A110+=+100+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "The selling price of 10 shirts is $110
\n" ); document.write( "( the cost of 11 shirts )
\n" ); document.write( "Plug into formula:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+%28+110+-+100+%29+%2F+100+=+10%2F100+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+%28+10%2F100+%29%2A100+=+10+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "10% gain\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
