Answer 2

Answer:

The cost price of 50 dozens bananas that Harish purchased, CP=Rs.135

Bananas left after removing 5 dozens of rotten bananas =45 dozens

Now, the effective CP of one dozen bananas =Rs.135/45=Rs.3

The price at which Harish should sell each dozen bananas to make a profit of 20%;

Profit%=Gain/CP=(SP−CP)/CP

3

SP−3

SP=Rs.3.60

Harish should sell the bananas at Rs.3.60 a dozen in order to make a profit of 20%.
