Solutions :-

Given :
Cost Price of 1 Dozen oranges = Rs x
Cost Price of 1 Orange = Rs x/12

Selling price of 1 Orange = Rs x/10


Selling price is greater than the Cost price. Therefore, Profit.

Profit = S.P - C.P

 =  \frac{x}{10}  -  \frac{x}{12}  \\  \\  =  \frac{6x - 5x}{60}  =  \frac{x}{60}



Profit % = (profit × 100)/C.P %
 =  \frac{ \frac{x}{60} \times 100 }{ \frac{x}{12} } \% \\  \\  =  \frac{12 \times x \times 100}{60 \times x}\%  \\  \\  =  \frac{1200x}{60x}\%  = 20\%


Hence,
Profit percent = 20%

Dear ,

Your Answer is ;- Gain 20%

=≈≈≈===≈≈≈≈≈===≈≈≈≈≈=≈≈=
Step by Step Explanation ;-
=≈≈≈===≈≈≈≈≈===≈≈≈≈≈=≈≈=

Given ;-
• 1 Dozen of Orange's Cost Price ( CP ) = ₹ X.
• 1 Orange's Cost Price ( CP ) = ₹ X/12
• 1 Orange's Selling Price ( SP ) = ₹ X/12

Here , Selling Price ( SP ) is greater than the Cost Price ( CP ) , which shows profit in the selling of the oranges !

We know that ;-
• Profit = SP - CP

So ,
 = > \frac{x}{10} - \frac{x}{12}

 = > \frac{6x - 5}{60} = \frac{x}{60}

We also know that ;-

• Profit % = { Profit × 100 } / CP%

So ,

 = > \frac{ \frac{x}{100} \times 100}{ \frac{x}{12} }\%

 = > \frac{12 × x × 100}{60 × x} \%

 = > \frac{1200x}{60x}\% = 20\%

Therefore ,
Profit or Gain % = 20%
