I don't know this solution

Answer 2

Answer:

38 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A shopkeeper brought 100 quintal of wheat at rs.1000 per quintal.

Then,

The cost price = 100* 1000 = 100000 Rs.

Also given that,

he sold 60 quintal at rs 1500 per quintal and remaining at rs 1200 per quintal.

Then,

The selling price = 60 * 1500 + 40 * 1200 = 90000 + 48000 = Rs 1,38,000

If selling price > Cost price

Then he got profit.

Profit = 138000 - 100000 = 38000

Profit % = ( 38000/100000) * 100

= 38%
