Question

a merchant bought 74 kgs of rice for rs.999. he spent rs.40 to bring it to his shop.how much did he gain or lose if he sold the rice in retail at rs.15.20 per kg?

Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is he almost gains 85.80

Step-by-step explanation:

cP of 74 Kgs of rice=999

initial cp= 40

total cp=999+40=1039

if he sells 1kg at 15.20

then 74 multiply by 15.20 is 1124.80

gain=1124.80 minus 1039=85.80
