Step-by-step explanation:

80Apples sold: 2040

Loss 15% = 15/100

Received : 100 - 15 = 85% = 85/100

Amount of Loss:

selling price ÷ (Received percentage) × 15%loss

=2040÷ 85/100 × 15/100

= 2040 × 100/85 × 15/100

= 2040 × 15/85

= 360 Loss

Actuall cost of 80 Apples: 2040 + 360 = 2400

Each Apple price: 2400 ÷ 80 = 30

Each Apple price with 30% profit:

=30 + ( 30/100×30)

= 30+9

= 39 per Apple with 30% Profit

Total Apples with 30% profit : 52340 ÷ 39

= 1342.051 Apples
