Question

200 mangoes are purchased for rs.600 if one wants to gain 33.33% as profit then what should be the selling price of 1 dozen of mangoes​

Answer 1

The selling price of 1 dozen mangoes should be Rs. 48 in order to make a profit of 33.33%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost price of 200 mangoes = Rs. 600

So, The C.P. of 1 mango = $\frac{600}{200}$ = Rs. 3

Gain % = 33.33%  

The formula of calculating the selling price or S.P. is given by

S.P. = [(100+G)/100] × C.P.

Substituting the given values, we get

S.P. of 1 mango = $[\frac{100 + 33.33}{100}]$ × 3 = Rs. 3.99 ≈ Rs. 4

Thus,

The selling price of 1 dozen mangoes is,

= 12 * Rs. 4 …… [since 1 dozen = 12]

= Rs. 48
