Question

A fruit vendor purchased 80 dozens of bananas at rs. 10 per dozen. Out of this, 12 dozens got rotten and he sold them at rs 6 per dozen. Remaining bananas were sold by him at rs. 14 per dozen. What profit did the make in this transaction?

Answer 1

Answer:

Rs. 224

Step-by-step explanation:

C.P = 80*10

      = 800

no. of rotten dozens= 12

S.P of rotten bananas = 12*6= 72

left =68

S.P of good bananas= 68*14 = 952

total S.P= 72 + 952 = 1024

profit = S.P - C.P

         = 1024-800

         = 224 Rs.

profit % = 28%
