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
