Question

A dozen oranges were bought for ₹21 and sold at ₹ 1.90 each. Find the profit in percent.

Answer 1

Answer:

8.57 %

Step-by-step explanation:

1 dozen = 12

12 oranges cost price = 21 rs

1 orange cost price = 21/12 = 1.75 rs

Selling price of 1 orange = rs 1.9

Profit = 1.9 - 1.75 = 0.15 Rs

Profit % = (0.15/1.75)*100 = 8.57 %
