Let, the marked price of article be $₹ x$

Now, according to the question,

$	herefore \quad$ $C.P.$ of article $=₹ \frac{2 x}{5}$

$S.P.$ of article $=\frac{x 	imes 90}{100}=₹ \frac{9 x}{10}$

Gain $=\frac{9 x}{10}-\frac{2 x}{5}=\frac{9 x-4 x}{10}=\frac{5 x}{10}=\frac{x}{2}$

$	herefore \quad$ Gain percent $=\frac{\operatorname{Gain} 	imes 100}{	ext { C.P. }}$

$=\frac{\frac{x}{2} 	imes 100}{\frac{2 x}{5}}=\frac{5 	imes 100}{4}=125 \%$
