Cost price of 200 kg wheat is 8×200

50 kg=50×6

=300rupees.

Total selling price=1500+300

=1800rupees

Profi=1800-1600

=200rupees

gain %=gain/cp×100

=200/1600×100

Answer 2

Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

CP = 200kg for Rs 8 per kg

200*8 = 1600Rs

SP = 150kg+(200-150)kg

150kg for 10rs = 1500Rs

200-150 = 50 for 6Rs = 300

150+50kg = 1500+300Rs

200kg = 1800

Profit = SP - CP

1800-1600 = 200

Profit % = (200/1600) * 100 = 12.5%
