Answer 2

Answer:

The profit percentage of the shopkeeper is 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A shopkeeper sells a 5kg fruits for the cost price of 6kg of fruits.We are required to find the profit/loss percentage.

Let us assume that the cost price of 1kg of fruits be 100$

Therefore,the cost price of 5kg of fruits $5\times100=500$

The shopkeeper sells 5kg fruits at an cost price of 6kg fruits.Hence,the selling price of the fruits is $6\times100\ =600$

Hence the profit percentage can be calculated by the relation as shown-

$\%=\frac{S.P-C.P}{C.P} \times100$

Substituting the values in above relation we get

$=\frac{600-500}{500} \times100=20\%$

Therefore,the profit percentage of the shopkeeper is 20%
