Question

banana are bought at 6 for rupees 5 and sold at 8 for rupee 11. find the gain and loss​

Answer 1

Answer:

The man buys 6 bananas for ₹5

The cost of 6 bananas = ₹5

Coat of 1 banana = 5/6

The man sells 5 bananas for ₹6

The selling of 5 bananas is ₹6

Selling price of one banana is ₹6/5

$\purple{\boxed{\sf Profit = selling \: price / cost \: price }}$

=> ₹6/5 - ₹5/6

=> ₹ ( 36 - 25 ) / 30

=> ₹11/30

Profit for 1 banana = 11 / 30

$\red{\boxed{\sf Profit \: percent = Profit / Cp × 100 }}$

=> Profit% = 11/30/5/6 × 100%

=> 11/30 × 6/5 × 100%

=> 11/25 × 100%

=> 11 × 4%

=> 44%

$\orange{\boxed{\sf gain = 44 \: percent }}$
