Answer:
Oranges should be sold at the proc of 3.5 per orange.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost price of oranges per dozen=35
Total quantity of oranges bought=6 dozens=6×12=72
Total cost price paid=35×6=210
Profit% to be added=5%
Selling price of oranges=210+210×5%=220.5
A/q,
9 oranges out of 6 dozen oranges are thrown away.
Hence, remaining oranges= 72-9= 63
Now,
Selling Price per orange= (220.5/63)= 3.5
