Question

A vendor bought lemons at 6 for a rupee and sold them at 4 for a rupee. what is his gain percent​

Answer 1

Hey...!!

First we have to find the LCM of 6 and 4

LCM is 12

CP of 12 lemons = 12 ÷ 6 × 1

= 2 × 1

= 2 rupees

SP of 12 lemons = 12 ÷ 4 × 1

= 3 × 1

= 3 rupees

Gain = SP - CP

= 3 - 2

= 1 rupee

There is a gain of 1 rupee

Gain % = gain ÷ CP × 100

= 1 ÷ 2 × 100

= 0.5 × 100

= 50 %

There is a gain of 50%

Hope it hepls..!!✌
