now profit = 20% and s p of per dozen 10/3×120/100 RS = 4 RS.
so ans is 4 RS

Answer 2

Anuj should sell the remaining bananas at the price of Rs. 4 per dozen.

Step-by-step explanation:

Anuj has invested Rs 150 for buying 50 dozens of bananas.

i.e., the cost price of the bananas = Rs 150.

Also, it is given that, Anuj made a profit of 20%.

∴  The selling price (S.P) of the bananas = C.P + 20% of C.P. = 150 + 0.2*150 = 150 + 30 = Rs. 180.

Now,  

According to the question, 5 dozens of bananas were rotten, which he couldn’t sell.

Therefore, he made the profit by selling 50 – 5 = 45 dozens of bananas.

Thus,  

The price per dozen that Anuj should sell the remaining bananas would be,

= 180/45  

= Rs. 4
