Question

quintal. Find his profit or loss.​

Answer 1

Answer : \bold{Loss \: = \: Rs \: 3500}

Explanation -

Given :

Cost of Per quintal = Rs 800

Octori charges = Rs 400

Transportation charges = Rs 600

Selling price of per quintal = Rs 750.

Finding the cost of 50 quintals -

per quintal = Rs 800

50 quintals = 50 x 800 = 40,000

So, cost of 50 quintals = Rs 40,000

Add his octori and transportation charges -

40,000 + 600 + 400 = 41,000.

Cost Price = ₹ 41,000

Finding Selling price of 50 quintals -

per quintal = Rs 750

50 quintals = 50 x 750 = 37,500

So, the Selling Price of 50 quintals = ₹ 37,500

Finding Loss/Gain -

Here, CP is more than SP . CP > SP. Hence, loss.

Loss = Cost Price - Selling Price

Loss = 41,000 - 37,500

Loss = ₹ 3500.

Hence :

\bold{Loss \: = \: Rs \: 3500}

Answer 2

Answer:

is hi types ka hai answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the cost price:

1 quintal = Rs 700

100 quintal = 700 x 100 = Rs70,000

Find the selling price of 50 quintal:

1 quintal = Rs 1000

50 quintal = 50 x 1000 = Rs 50,000

Find the remaining amount of quintal:

Remaining amount = 100 - 50 = 50 quintal

Find the selling price of the remaining quintal:

1 quintal = Rs 800

50 quintal = 800 x 50 = Rs 40,000

Find the total selling price:

Total = 50,000 + 40,000 = Rs 90,000

Find the gain:

Gain = Selling Price - Cost Price

Gain = 90,000 - 70,000 = Rs 20,000

Gain percentage = gain / cost price x 100

Gain percentage = 20,000/70,000 x 100 = 28.57%

The gain is Rs 20,000 and it is 28.57%
