Answer:
Answer
Salt costs
=
13.5
per kg
Given 10 kg of salt made into 500 g salt packets
For1kg salt(including packing)
=
13.5+
2(0.25)
Because for 500 g packing it cost
=
0.25
pair.
∴For1kg it costs
=
13.5+
2(0.25)
(with packing)
=
13.5+
0.5
= 14
Now for 10 kg C.P
=
10×
14
= 140
S.P
=
155
Rs.
Profit ⇒ S.P − C.P
=
155−
140
= 15
