Answers
Answer:
He buys x oranges at 20 for Rs.60/-
Each orange will cost 60/20 or Rs.3/-
So cost price of this variety of orange =3x
Similarly he buys x (same quantity) at 30 for Rs.60/-. So cost per orange 60/30 or Rs.2/-
So CP of the 2nd variety = 2x
Total quantity of both varieties :3x+2x = 5x
Total cost of both varieties = Rs.120/-
5x = Rs.120, x = 24
So his average CP is he buys 24 oranges for Rs.60/- or CP per orange =60/24 or 5/2
He sells at 25 oranges for Rs 60 or SP per orange = 60/25 or 12/5
Loss = CP-SP = 5/2-12/5=1/10
Loss Percent = loss/CP x 100
1/10 ÷5/2 x 100 = 1/10×2/5×100 = 4% loss.
Answer:
He bought 4350 oranges I think
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us consider total no. of oranges as 'x'
75%x = gave to charity
13%x = rotten
75%+13%=88%
Left oranges = 12%
12%x= 522
12/100 x= 522
3/25 x =522 (Divide 12 and 100 by 4)
x = 522 X 25 / 3 ( Cross multiplication)
x = 174 X 25 ( Divide 522 and 3 by 3)
x= 4350
