Answers
Answer:
Given, the Cost price of 8 dozen bananas at 0.60 paisa :
= 8 * 0.60
= 4.80.
The number of bananas spoiled = 7.
The number of remaining bananas will be 89.
Then the selling price of 89 bananas will be 89 * 0.06 = 5.34.
Total Profit = 5.34 - 4.80
= 0.54.
Profit % = 0.54 * 100/4.80
= 11.25.

Answer:
man made a loss of 186 paise
Step-by-step explanation:
1 dozen = 12 banana
8 dozen = 12×8 banana
8 dozen = 96 banana
cost per 1 dozen = 60 paise(100 paise=1 rs)
cost per 12 dozen = 12×60 paise
cost per 12 dozen = 720 paise
now 7 banana got spoiled so = 96-7=89 banana left
the man sold per 1 banana for 6 paise=89×6=534 paise
so the man bought banana for 720 paise and sold at 534 paise
so he man made a loss of = 720 -534=186 paise.
