Question

Gopal bought 60 kg of mangoes at ? 48 per kg. He sold 70% of the mangoes at
60 per kg and the remaining mangoes at 35 per kg. Find Gopal's gain or loss per
cent on the whole deal.​

Answer 1

Cost price is 60x48 = 2880

70% of 60= 42

SP of 42 kg is 42x 60 = 2520

now remaining are 18 kg

SP of 18 kg = 630

So SP = 630 + 2520= 3150

so profit is 3150 - 2880 = 270

profit percent is 270x 100 / 2880 = 9.375 %
