Question

A fruit seller purchased 2 dozen oranges for Rs. 2.50 each and 3 dozen
oranges for Rs. 2.80 each and sold them at Rs. 2.75 each. Find the gain or
loss percent on the transaction.​

Answer 1

Answer:

he will gain 4.20 rupees

Step-by-step explanation:

2.50 x 24 = 60

2.80 x 36 = 100.80

2.75 x 60 = 165

165 rs - 160.80rs = 4.20 rs

Answer 2

Answer:

2.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Price of First Oranges = 2.5 Rs each

Price of Second Oranges = 2.8 Rs each

Quantity of First Oranges = 2 Dozen = 24 Oranges

Quantity of Second Oranges = 3 Dozen = 36 Oranges

Cost Price of First Oranges = 2.5 x 24 = 60 Rs

Cost Price of Second Oranges = 2.8 x 36 = 100.8 Rs

Total Cost Price of all Oranges = 60 + 100.8 = 160.8 Rs

The price at which he sold each Orange = 2.75 Rs

Total Oranges = 36 + 24 = 60 Oranges

Selling Price = 2.75 * 60 = 165 Rs

So we can see that, SP is greater than CP

Gain = SP - CP

        = 165 - 160.8

        = 4.2 Rs

Gain %age = (Gain / CP) * 100

                   =(4.2/160.8) * 100

                   = 0.026 * 100

                   = 2.6 %
