Question

13. A tea- merchant sells the tea at a loss of 6% but uses a weight of 1800 g instead of 2 kg. Find his actual gain per cent. 11​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

he tea seller sells at a loss of 6% but provides the customer with only 90% of what he is supposed to give. so he gets a 10% saved or profit

so if he sells 100rs tea at 94 but provides only 90% of it

if he sells 100% it will cost 94+ 1/9×(94)

ie 94+10.4=104.4

therefore he gets a profit of 4.4%
