Question

fruit seller buys mangoes as rupees 350 and sells them at rupees 48 per dozen find his profit or loss percentage​

Answer 1

Answer:

CP/100 Mangoes = Rs. 350

CP/1 Mango = 350/100

CP/1 Mango = Rs. 3.5

SP/12 Mangoes = Rs. 48

SP/1 Mango = 48/12

SP/1 Mango = Rs. 4

Profit = SP - CP

Profit = 4 - 3.5

Profit = Rs. 0.5

Profit % = Profit/CP x 100

Profit % = 0.5/3.5 x 100

Profit % = 14.2857142857%

therefore, profit % is about 14.2857142857%
