Question

9. A vendor bought 120 sweets at 20p each. In his house, 18 were consumed and he sold the remaining at 30p each. Find his profit or loss%.

Answer 1

Answer:

cost price= 120×20 p = 2400 p = 24 rs

selling price= 102×30 p = 3060 p = 30.6 rs

profit = 30.6-24 =6.6 rs

profit percentage= 100×6.6/24 =27.5%
