Answer 1

Answer:

Gains 9.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

He bought 60kg @ 48 i.e.Rs.2880

sells 70% of mangos i.e. 42kg @60 i.e. Rs.2520

balance 18kg @35 i.e. Rs.630

Total gain is Rs.270 on Rs.2880 i.e.9.4%

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

weight of mangoes = 60kg

cost of 1 kg mangoes=48rs

total cost = 60×48=2880rs

now,70%of mangoes = 60×70/100=42kg

selling price of 70% mangoes =60per kg

total selling price of 42kg mangoes = 42×60=2520rs

remaining mangoes =60-42=18kg

selling price of the remaining 2880mangoes=35 per kg

total selling price of the remaining

mangoes=630rs

total selling price of all60kg mangoes =630+2520=3150rs

net profit= selling price-cost price=3150-2880=270rs

profit percentage=profit/Cp×100=270×100/2880=9.375
