​

Answer 1

He buys mangoes at 4 rupees each and

Sells it at 5 rupees each

S.P for 100 mangoes=500

C.P for 100 mangoes=400

Therefore gain= 100 rupees

Answer 2

Answer:

it is a profit

Step-by-step explanation:

no. of mangoes = 100

cost of all the mangoes = ₹400

so,

cost of one mango = 400/100

= 4

so one mango = ₹4

IN THE SECOND CASE,

no. of mangoes sold = 5

total cost = ₹25

so,

cost of one mango sold= 25/5 = 5

so, cost one mango = ₹5

Cost price is greater than Selling price so it's a profit.
