Question

A vendor bought 20 oranges for RS. 125 and sold them at RS. 90 per dozen. Find his gain or loss %

Answer 1

Answer: 20.24 % profit

Step-by-step explanation: Price of one orange = 125 ÷ 20 = 6.25

20 oranges = 20 ÷ 12 dozen

= 1.67 dozen

Cost received by selling 1.67 dozen ( 20 oranges ) = Rs 90 × 1.67

= Rs 150.30

He got profit of Rs 25.3

Profit % = 25.3 ÷ 125 × 100

= 20.24 %
