Step-by-step explanation:

First he purchased 2 Lemons for 1 Rupee

As we know 1 Rupee is equal to 100 paisa

That means price of one lemon is 100 paisa divided by 2 which is equal to 50 paisa

So purchased one lemon for 50 Paisa

Now he sold 5 lemons for 3 Rupees

Tbis means 300 paisa divided by 5 which is equal to 60 paisa

So the price at which he one lemon is 60 paisa

So if we subtract the the above we got to know that he has profit of 10 paisa for each lemon

He has a profit of almost 16.66 percent
