Question

a vendor buys lemon at rs 25 per dozen and sells them at the rate of 5 for rs 12. Find his gain or loss percent

Answer 1

12 lemons C.P=25,

then

1 lemon C.P=25/12,


5 lemons S.P=12,

then

1 lemon S.P=12/5,

hence

profit=12/5 - 25/12,

profit=(144-125)/60,

profit=19/60,


therefore

%profit = (19/60)/(25/12) × 100,

=19/60 × 12/25 × 100,

=15.2%

Answer 2

answer is 15.2% please mark me as brainleist
