The number of oranges I bought is equal to 12.
Let the number of oranges bought by I be equal to x.
The cost price of 4 oranges = Rs. 1
Cost price of x oranges = Rs. x/4
The selling price of 3 oranges = Rs. 1
Selling price of x oranges = Rs. x/3
Total profit earned = Selling price of the oranges - cost price of the oranges
1 = x/3 - x/4
=> 12 = x
The number of oranges bought by I = 12
