Question

14. Devi purchased 10 dozens of mangoes at
Rs.750 a dozen. She sold each mango for
Rs.65. What is her profit percentage?
(a) 4%
(b) 5%
(C) 8%
(d) 10%​

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) 4%

Step-by-step explanation:

cost of a dozen = ₹750

therefore, cost of 10 dozen = ₹7500

s.p. of one mango = ₹65

therefore, s.p. of 10dozen or 120 mangoes = ₹(65 × 120)

= ₹7800

therefore, profit = s.p - c.p

= ₹(7800 - 7500)

= ₹300

profit percentage = (300/7500) × 100

= 4%

Answer 2

Answer:

4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total CP=₹7500

No of mango= 120

Total SP=₹7800

Profit= ₹300

Profit% =300/7500*100=4%
