Solutions :-
C.P = cost price
S.P = selling price
[ 1 Dozen = 12 Units ]
Given : A fruitseller bought 5 Dozens of bananas at Rs 12 per dozen.
C.P of 12 banana = Rs 12
C.P of 1 banana = Rs 12/12 = Rs 1
5 Dozens banana = 12 × 5 = 60 bananas
C.P of 60 banana = Rs 1 × 60 = Rs 60
Now,
[ 1 score = 20 Units]
Selling price of bananas is Rs 25 per score
S.P of 20 banana = Rs 25
S.P of 1 banana = Rs 25/20 = 1.25
S.P of 60 bananas = Rs 60 × 1.25 = Rs 75
Therefore,
C.P of 5 Dozens bananas = Rs 60
S.P of 5 Dozens bananas = Rs 75
Compare S.P and C.P :-
S.P > C.P
So, Profit
Profit = S.P - C.P
= Rs ( 75 - 60) = Rs 15
Profit% = (profit × 100)/C.P %
= (15 × 100)/60 %
= 1500/60 %
= 25 %
Hence,
His gain is Rs 15
And gain % is 25 %

➡️ Given : A fruit seller bought 5 dozen of bananas at ₹12 per dozen
➡️ C. P of 12 banana = Rs 12
➡️ C. P of 1 banana = Rs 12/12 = ₹1
➡️ 5 dozen bananas = 12 × 5 = 60 bananas
➡️ C. P of 60 bananas = 60 ₹
Now, S. P of bananas is 25 ₹ per score.
S. P of banana = 25 ₹
S. P of 1 banana = 25 / 20 = 1.25 ₹
S. P of banana = 60 × 1.25 = 75 ₹
Therefore,
S. P > C. P
Now to calculate profit
Profit = S. P - C. P
➡️ 75 - 60 = 15 ₹
➡️ profit % = ( p × 100) / C. P
➡️ 15 × 100 / 60
➡️ 25 %
➡️ ➡️ ➡️ ➡️ ➡️ ➡️ ➡️ ➡️ ➡️ ➡️ ➡️ ➡️
Gain Rs = 15
Gain percentage = 25%
