Question

himanshu bought 120 kg of sugar at rupees 22 per kg he sold 30 percent of sugar at rupees 13 per kg and the remaining sugar at rupees 25 per kg find his gain or loss present on the whole​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

total CP of sugar @ 22/kg = 2684

SP of 30% sugar --@ 13/kg=

30% of 122

30/100 × 122 = 36.6×13

= 475.8

SP of 70% of Sugar --@25/kg

70/100 × 122 = 85.4 ×13

= 2135

TOTAL SP = 475.8+2135 =2610.80

therefore SP - CP= 2610.8. - 2684= -73.2

hence its a loss as its negative .

Loss % = loss ×100

CP

= -73.2 × 100

2684

= 2.72%
