seller is
a. 20
b. 28
c. 25
d.30​

Answer 1

Answer:

let the c.p.be Re 1

s.p.of 300 apples-c.p. of 300 apples= s.p. of 60 apples

s.p. of 240 apples= c.p. of 300 apples(i.e.Rs 300)

c.p. of 240 apples=Rs 240

gain= s.p. - c.p.

gain =300-240

gain=60

gain %= 60/240*100=25%7 years

Please follow me

Answer 2

The gain percent of seller is c.25%.

Given:

To find:

Solution:

Let the CP of one orange be Re 100

Now, we know that profit is SP - CP

We have bee given that profit of 300 oranges is equal to SP of 60 oranges

So, it can be said that

SP of 300 oranges -CP of 300 oranges = SP of 60 oranges

SP of 240 oranges= CP of 300 oranges = 300 * 100 = 30000

SP of 1 orange = 30000/240 = 125

SP of 300 oranges = 37,500

CP of 300 oranges=Rs 300 * 100 = 30000

Now, we have to find profit

gain of 300 oranges = SP of 300 oranges - CP of 300 oranges

gain =37,500 - 30,000

gain=7,500

gain %= gain/CP * 100

= 7500/30000 * 100

= 25%

Hence, the answer is c.25
