Question

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost For 50 Dozens Of Banana=$3000

Cost For 1 Dozen Of Banana=$3000

50

$3000 \div 50 = 60$

Cost For 1 Dozen Of Banana=$60

Cost Price For 30 Dozens Of Banana=$60*30

$60 \times 30 = 1800$

Cost Price For 30 Dozens Of Banana=$1800

Profit=20%

Selling Price For 30 Dozens Of Banana=Cost Price+Profit%orCost Price-Loss%

=$1800+20%

=$2160

Now,

Cost Price For 20 Dozens Of Banana=$60*20

$60 \times 20 = 1200$

Cost Price For 20 Dozens Of Banana=$1200

Selling Price For 20 Dozens Of Banana=Cost Price+Profit%orCost Price-Loss%

=$1200-25%

=900

Now,

Total Cost Price For 50 Dozens Of Banana=$(1800+1200)

=$3000

Total Selling Price For 50 Dozens Of Banana=$(2160+900)

=$3060

Profit=Selling Price - Cost Price

=$(3060-3000)

=$60

Profut%= Profit. x 100

Cost Price

=60 x 100

3000

=0.2% Profit
