per kg and the remaining quantity at Rs 69 per kg. Find his profit or loss percent
in the transaction.​

Answer 1

Answer:

C.P. of 20 kg of surgar = 18×20=Rs.360

C.P. of 30 kg of sugar = 15×30=Rs.450

∴ Total C.P. = 360+450=Rs.810

S.P. of (20+30)kg=50kg of surgar = 16.50×50=Rs.825

∴ Profit = S.P. - C.P. = 825−810=Rs.15

∴ Profit percent =
