Question

A florist bought 12 dozen roses at * 9 per dozen. At what price should he sell them to gain 33.33%? Also find the selling price of a rose. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

The profit percentage is 25%

Let us find the price of one flower

The cost of twelve flowers = 96 Rs

The cost of one flower = 96/12

∴ The cost of one flower = 8 Rs

Let us calculate the profit

The selling cost of each flower = 10 Rs

∴ Profit on each flower selling = 10 Rs – 8 Rs

∴ Profit on each flower selling = 2 Rs

Let us determine the profit percentage

Profit Percentage = 2/8 x 100

Profit Percentage = 25%

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello student,\

C.P of 1 rose = 9/12 = 0.75

S.P of 1 rose = Re 1

Hence, since S.P. is greater than C.P. so he has made profit.

Profit = S.P. – C.P. = 1-0.75 = 0.25

Hence, profit on sale of 1 rose = 0.25

This means that the profit on sale of 240 roses = 240 x 0.25 = Rs 60

Profit % = (Profit/C.P.) x 100

= (0.25/0.75) x 100

= 100/3
