Question

4. A quantity of Ragi is sold at Rs. 5.75 per kg.
the gain is 15% and the total gain is Rs. 60.
What is the quantity of the Ragi sold ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

gain%=gain/c.p.×100

15=60/c.p.×10

c p.=(60×100)/15

c.p.=400

so,cost price=400rs.

profit=60rs.

selling price=c.p.+profit

=400+60=460rs

If,s.p. Rs.5.75,quantity sold=1kg

" " 1 ,quantity sold=1/5.75

then s.p. 460,quantity sold=1/5.75×460

=(460×100)/575

=46000/575

=80 kg

answer =80kg
