Answer 1

Given data :-

• A fruit seller bought 30 kg apples at the rate of Rs 88 per kg from the market.

• He paid is Rs 60 to bring the apples to his shop from the market.

• He sold all apples for Rs 3240.

Solution :-

{cost price = C.P ; selling price = S.P}

Here, cost price of 30 kg apples :

{According to given}

→ cost price of 30 kg apples = Rs {30 × 88}

→ cost price of 30 kg apples = Rs 2640

Let, total spended money by fruit seller be total cost,

{He paid is Rs 60 to bring the apples to his shop from the market.} hence

→ total cost of 30 kg apples

= Rs {2640 + 60}

→ total cost of of 30 kg apples = Rs 2700

{According to given}

→ selling price of 30 kg apples = Rs 3240

Now,

→ cost of one kg apple = Rs {2700/30}

→ cost of one kg apple = Rs 90

and

→ selling price of one kg apple = Rs {3240/30}

→ selling price of one kg apple = Rs 108

We know that selling price of one kg apple is greater than cost of one kg apple. hence its profit.

→ Profit = S.P - C.P

→ Profit = 108 - 90

→ Profit = Rs 18

and also selling price of 30 kg (all) apples is greater than total cost of 30 kg (all) apples. hence it profit.

→ Profit = S.P - C.P

→ Profit = 3240 - 2700

→ Profit = Rs 540

Now,

→ Profit % = {profit × 100}/total cost

→ Profit % = {540 × 100}/2700

→ Profit % = 54000/2700

→ Profit % = 540/27

→ Profit % = 20 %

Hence, fruit selker get Rs 18 profit by selling 1 kg apples and 20% profit percentage by selling all apples.
