Question

Apples are bought at 12 for rs 15 and sold at 15 for rs 12 . Find the gain or loss percent.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Loss = 36%

Step-by-step explanation:

C.P of 12 apples is 15

C.P of 1 apple will be 15/12 or 5/4

S.P of 15 apples is 12

S.P of 1 apple will be 12/15 or 4/5

Since C.P is more than S.P it will be a loss

Loss = C.P - S.P

= 5/4 - 4/5

= 25/20 - 16/20. (L.C.M 20

= 9/20

Loss% = L/C.P ×100

= 9/20/5/4 × 100

= 9/20 × 4/5 × 100

= 36%

HOPE THIS IS HELPFUL!!

price of 1st 3 lemon=5

so,price of 1 lemon=5÷3

2nd,price of 2lemon=4

price of 1 lemon=4÷2=2

again,price of 5 lemon=5÷3+2=11÷3

price of 1 lemon=11÷3÷5=11÷15

next,sells price of 5 lemon=9
