Question

A fruit seller buy oranges at the rate of 10 for rs 75 and sell them at 8 for rs 70 find his gain or loss percent

Answer 1

Explanation

LCM of 10 and 8 is 40.

CP of 10 mangoes=₹75

CP of 1 mango = ₹75/10

CP of 40 mangoes= ₹(75/10×40)

= ₹300

SP of 8 mangoes=₹70

SP of 1 mango= ₹(70/8)

SP of 40 mangoes=₹(70/8×40)

=₹350

Since,SP>CP .

So, there is a gain.

Gain=(SP-CP)

=₹(350-300)

=₹50

Gain%=(Gain/CP×100)

=(50/300×100)

=50/3%
