Answer:
he need to sell 32 pens for rs 96( for getting 20% profit
Step-by-step explanation:
SP of 90 ball pens is =180 Rs. at the loss of 20%.
CP of 90 ball pens is=180*100/80
=18*100/8
=18*25/2
=9*25
CP =225
CP of 1 ball pen is=225/90
=2.5 Rs.
He want to gain 20%.
The new SP is=2.5*120/100
=3 Rs.
So he will sell 20%=96/3
=32 ball pens.
