Question

360 flowersat rate of 8 per dozen. Sold them at 1 per flower what is profit

Answer 1

360 flowers = 30 dozen

1 dozen = rs 8

30 dozen = 30 × 8 = 240 rs

cost price is rs 240

sold at rs 1 per flower

360 ×1 = rs 360

profit = 360 - 240 = rs 120

profit per flower = 120/360 = 1/3

rs 0.33 per flower

total profits rs 120
