No of oranges bought by vendor : 20

Cost of 20 oranges : Rs.56

SP of one dozen (12oranges) = 35

SP of 1 orange = 35/12 = 2.92

Selling price of 20 oranges = 2.92×20 = 58.4

gain overall = Sp-cp

gain overall = 58.4-56 = 2.4

g% = g/cp×100

= 2.4/56×100

= 2.4×10/56×10*100

= 24/560*100

g% = 30/7%

(convert to mixed fraction )
