Question

a vendor buys lemons at rupees 25 per dozen and sells at 5 for rupees 12 find his gain percent ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

cost price of 12 lemons (in rupee)=25

so, cost price of one lemon = 25/12

hence cost price of 5

lemon = 5×25/12=10.416

sp of 5 lemon is more then cp

gain = sp _ cp

=12_10.416=1.584

gain%=gain/cp×100

=1.584/10.416×100

=15.2%
