Question

A fruit seller bought 30 kg apples at the rate of Rs. 88 per kg from the market. He paid Rs. 60 to bring the apples to his shop from the fruit market. He sold all apples for Rs. 3240. How much profit did he get in 1 kg apples? How much percent profit did he get by selling all apples? Find it.

Answer 1

Given:-

Rate of apples=88rupees.

Let the cost of 30kg apples =88×30

= 2640rupees

and cost of bringing apples from the fruit market =60rupees.

then, total cost price =2640+60

=2700rupees.

it is given that selling price =3240rupees.

so, In 1kg ,cp=88rupees.

and Sp=3340/30

=108 rupees.

Now,gain=sp-cp

=108-88

=20 rupees. ------------------(1).

Now, total's gain = total sp- total cp.

=3240-2700

=540rupees.

gain%=(gain×100) /cp.

=(540×100) /2700

=54000/2700

=20%. Answer.
