Answer 1

Answer:

rs60

Step-by-step explanation:

• Price at which bananas were bought=45*10=rs450
• Price at which bananas are sold=51*10=rs510
• profit=510-450=rs60

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

cost price of 10 bananas = 45 rupees

selling price of one dozen bananas is = 51 rupees

then CP of one banana= 45 /10 rupees= 4.50 rupees

therefore SP of one banana = 51/12 rupees=4.25 rupees

it is clearly visible that there is a loss because selling price is less than cost price

therefore loss= cost price -selling price =( 4.50-4.25 ) rupees = 0.25 rupees

now loss%= loss / cost price × 100

= 0.25/4.50× 100

= 1/18 ×100

= 100/18

= 50/9 %
