Question

Apples are bought at 6 for 10 and sold at 4 for 9. Find the gain or loss per cent.
​

Answer 1

The c.p of 6 apples=Rs10

The c.p of 1. apples=10/6=Rs1.66

The s.p of 4 apples=Rs9

The s.p of 1. apples=9/4= Rs2.25

It is a case of profit because s.p is more than c.p

Profit= s.p-c.p

=2.25-1.66

=0.59

% of profit=profit/s.p×100

=.59/2.25×100

=26.22% (Ans)

Answer 2

Answer:

10.66%

Step-by-step explanation:

cp of one apple=6\10

sp of one apple=4\9

profit =4/9-6/10

=16/90

profit%=16/90/6/10×100

=10.66%
