Question

12. 100 oranges are bought for 450 and sold at
48 per dozen. The percentage of profit or loss
is​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

C.P of 100 oranges = 450

C.P of 1 orange = 450/100 = ₹4.5

S.P of 12 oranges = ₹48

S.P of 1 orange = 48/12 = ₹4

As S.P<C.P,

There is loss

Loss percentage = Loss / C.P * 100

= 0.5/4 * 100

= 12.5%
