Answer 1

Answer:

Loss of 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's the litchies be 1 kg

So,

A man buys 1 kg of litchies in = 20rs.

and 1 kg in = 30rs.

Now,

He mixed it so, it became 2 kg

The cost of 2 kg litchies = 20+30=50

The cost in which he sold 2 kg is 25

So,

Percentage=25/50*100

=50% loss
