$\red{\bigstar}$ There will be Loss of the shopkeeper and by $\large\leadsto\boxed{\tt\purple{10.71 \%}}$

• Given:-

• Shopkeeper buys 15 oranges for Rs. 21

• Sells them at 20 oranges for Rs. 25

• To Find:-

• Gain or Loss %

• Solution:-

★ $\large\underline{\underline{\rm\pink{C.P:-}}}$

Given that,

• Cost Price of 15 oranges = Rs. 21

➠ Cost Price of 1 orange = $\sf \dfrac{21}{15}$

➠ $\bf\blue{Rs. \: 1.4}$

★ $\large\underline{\underline{\rm\pink{S.P:-}}}$

Given that,

Selling Price of 20 oranges = Rs. 25

➠ Selling Price of 1 orange = $\sf \dfrac{25}{20}$

➠ $\bf\blue{Rs. \: 1.25}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Here,

C.P > S.P

Hence,

LOSS

We know,

$\pink{\bigstar}$ $\large\underline{\boxed{\bf\green{Loss = C.P - S.P}}}$

➠ $\sf Loss = 1.4 - 1.25$

➠ $\bf\blue{Loss = Rs. \: 0.15}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Also,

$\pink{\bigstar}$ $\large\underline{\boxed{\bf\green{Loss \% = \dfrac{Loss}{C.P} \times 100}}}$

➠ $\sf Loss \% = \dfrac{0.15}{1.4} \times 100$

➠ $\sf Loss \% = \dfrac{15}{1.4}$

★ $\large{\bf\red{Loss \% = 10.71 \%}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Therefore, there is a loss of 10.71%.
