Answer 2

Given:

Carla bought oranges at rs 60 per dozen ten percent were rotten.

To Find:

At what rate should she sell the remaining oranges to get a profit of 10 percent​

Solution:

Let's consider she buys x dozen oranges.

The cost price of  one orange = 60/12 = 5,

10% of 12 = 10/100 × 12 = 1.2

So rotten oranges be  1.2 dozen and remaining oranges be 10.8

profit % = profit / cost price

          = (S.P. - C.P) × 100/C.P.

10 = ( 10.8x - 60) × 100 / 60

600 = 1080x - 6000

1080x = 6600

x = 6600/1080

x = 1100/180

x = 6.11

Hence, she should sell oranges at 6.11 rupees per orange.
