Answer 1

Answer:

kindly see the answer below..

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,

given that by selling 16 bananas per rupee got 40% loss how many bananas should sell to gain 20%..

then, let assume that cost price be X rupees..

so, for 16 banana....

$x \times \frac{60}{100} = 1$

$or \: \: x = \frac{100}{60}$

$or \: \: x = \frac{5}{3} rupees$

Therefore, to gain 20% we have to sell the 16 bananas in...

$= \frac{5}{3} \times \frac{120}{100}$

$= 2rupees$

Now, In 2 rupees we get 16 bananas.
