Question

Anayara Bibi bought 10 lemons for Rs 30 and sold them for Rs 42 per dozen. Let's calculate the percentage of profit or loss of Anayararabibi.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Profit Percentage = 16.67%

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 10 Lemons = Rs 30

Therefore Cost of 1 Lemon = 30/10 = Rs 3.00

Selling price of One Dozen = Rs 42.00

Therefore Selling Price of 1 Lemon = 42/12 = Rs 3.5

Profit = Rs 3.50 - Rs 3.00 = Rs 0.50

Profit Percentage = (Profit / Cost Price ) x 100

                             = (0.50/3) x 100

                            = 16.67%
