Question

A fruit seller bought bananas at the rate of Rs.45 per dozen and sold them at the rate of Rs.45 per 10 banana what is gain or loss%

Answer 1

Greetings.!!

12 Bananas cost RS 45

So, 1 banana costs Rs 45/12 = Rs 3.75

Now, 10 baananas are sold at Rs 45

So, 1 banana is sold at Rs 45/10 = Rs 4.50

Therefore. we see S.P > C.P

So , gain = SP - CP = RS ( 4.50 - 3.75) = Rs 0.75

So , gain percent = gain/cp * 100 = 0.75/3.75*100 = 20 %

Answer : hence , gain percent = 20 %
