50 bags at 6% loss hence

6÷100×900=54

900-54=816

50×816=40800

Answer 2

Answer:

963 rs per bag

Step-by-step explanation:

remaining bags are 180-70-50 = 60 bags left.

let the loss or gain % = x %

gain/loss % percentage = (sum of product of quantity and respective gain/loss% )/Amount of whole property

9 = (70*20 + 50*-6 + x*60)/180

x = +7%

cost price = Rs 900 per bag  = 7%

sale price  = 107/100*900 = 963 rs per bag
