Question

A vendor buys lemons at Rs. 25 per dozen and sells them at the rate of 5 for Rs. 12. Find his profit or loss percent.

Hint : Suppose he buys (12×5) = 60 lemons.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Profit=15.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,

C.P. of 60 lemons=25*5=125

S.P. of 60 lemons=12*12=144

Profit=144-125=19

So, Profit %=Profit/C.P.*100

                  =19/125*100=15.2%
