Question

if a fruit vendor sell 10 apples at the cost of 12 apples then what is his gain or loss percent​

Answer 1

Answer:

Here it is

Step-by-step explanation:

CP of 1 apple = 10/12= 5/6

SP of 1 apple = 12/10 = 6/5

Gain percentage = (6/5–5/6)/(5/6) * 100

= 11/30 * 6/5 * 100

= 44

Answer 2

Let a cost of apple be x.

Now , CP= 10x

and. SP = 12x

Profit = SP - CP

= 12x-10x= 2x

here , Profit percentage = profit / CP *100

$gain \: percent = \frac{2x}{10x} \times 100 \\ = \frac{1}{5} \times 100 \\ = 20$

Therefore , Gain % = 20%
