Question

A fruitseller bought some mangoes at the rate of 150 for 15 and an equal number at
the rate of 81 for 9. He sold them at +100 for 12. Find his gain or loss%.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

12.28%

Step-by-step explanation:

S.P. per mango = 100÷12 = 100/12 rupees

CP per mango = (10+9) ÷ 2 = 19/2 rupees

clearly loss

Loss =[ {(19÷2)-(100÷12)} / (19÷2)] ×100

= 700÷57

= 12.28%
