Question

A man purchased some oranges of the rate 10 oranges for 1rs. How many oranges for a rupee did he sell to gain 10%?

Answer 1

Answer:

• S. P of 10 oranges = ₹ 1.1

Given :

• A man purchased some oranges of the rate 10 oranges for ₹ 1 .

To find :

• How many oranges for a rupee did he sell to gain 10% = ?

Step-by-step explanation:

C. P of 10 oranges = ₹ 1

C. P of 1 orange = 1/10

Gain (g) = 10 %

Formula for S. P,

S. P = (100 + g/100) × C. P

Substituting the values in the above formula, we get,

= (100 + 10/100) × 1/10

= 110/100 × 1/10

= 11/100

= 0.11

Now,

S. P of 10 oranges = 10 × 0.11 = ₹ 1.1

Thus, S. P of 10 oranges = ₹ 1.1

Answer 2

$\huge\underline\mathbb {SOLUTION:-}$

Answer:

• S.P of 10 oranges = Rs. 1.1

Given:

• Man purchased some oranges of the rate 10 oranges for Rs. 1.

To Find:

• How many oranges for a rupee did he sell to gain 10% = ?

Explanation:

C.P of 10 Oranges = Rs. 1

C.P of 1 orange = $\mathsf {\frac{1}{10}}$

G = 10 %

$\underline \mathsf \red {Formula\:used\:here\:for\:C.P}$

• S.P = $\mathsf {(100 + \frac{G}{100}) \times C.P}$

Putting the values according to formula then we get,

$\implies \mathsf {(100 + \frac{10}{100})\times \frac{1}{10} }$

$\implies \mathsf {\frac{110}{100} \times \frac{1}{10} }$

$\implies \mathsf {\frac{11}{10} }$

$\implies \mathsf {0.11 }$

Therefore,

• S.P of 10 oranges = 10 × 0.11 = Rs. 1.1
• S.P of 10 oranges = Rs. 1.1

Additional information:

$\underline \mathsf \green {Here\: :-}$

• C.P is used for Cost Price.
• S.P is used for Selling Price.
• G is used for Gain.
