Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The cost price of a cow, CP = $200

Gain = $50

We need to find the gain percentage of the cost price.

SP = CP + gain

= 50 + 200

= $250

[tex]\text{Gain}\%=\dfrac{\text{Gain}}{CP}\times 100\\\\=\dfrac{50}{200}\times 100\\\\=25\%[/tex]

So, the gain percent is 25%.
