Answer 1

Answer:

1. The loss obtained by selling for 1500 is C-1500. The profit obtained by selling for 2100 is 2100-C.

2.600 and makes a profit of 1/5 of sp. Calculate his profit percent. Answer is 25%

3. CP of 5 oranges =rs.30

CP of 1 orange =30 ÷5 =rs.6

Now each orange is sold at a cost of rs 8

so SP of 1 orange =rs 8

this means SP of 5 oranges = 8×5 = rs 40

now gain or profit earned = SP - CP = rs 40 - rs 30 = rs 10

therefore ajith earns a profit of rs 10 on selling 5 oranges at selling price of rs 8 per orange
