Question

400 mangoes were purchased at rupees 125 per hundred and sold at a loss of rupees 100. Find the S.P. of one dozen mangoes.

Answer 1

Cost of 400 mangoes = 125×4
= Rs. 500
Loss of Rs. 100 then S.P. =
500-100 = 400
S.P. of 400 mangoes =
Rs.400
S.P. of 1mangoe = 400/400
= Re. 1
S.P. of 12 mangoes = 12×1
= Rs. 12
