Question

if a person purchases 12 mangoes in rupees 10 and sells them at the rate of 10 mangoes in rupees 12 then that will be this profit loss percentage in this deal​

Answer 1

Answer:

profit%=12^2-10^2/10^2 = 44%

Answer 2

If the cost of 12 mangoes is Rs.10 and the selling price of 10 mangoes is Rs.12 then the profit percentage in this deal is 44%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost price of 12 mangoes = Rs. 10

∴ The cost price of 1 mango will be = $\frac{10}{12}$ = $\frac{5}{6}$ = Re. 0.833

The selling price of 10 mangoes = Rs. 12

∴ The selling price of 1 mango will be = $\frac{12}{10}$ = $\frac{6}{5}$ = Rs. 1.2

Since the S.P. of 1 mango > C.P. of 1 mango, therefore the person will make a profit in this deal.

Thus,  

The profit percentage in this deal is given by,

= [(S.P. – C.P.)/C.P.] * 100

= [(1.2 – 0.833)/0.833] * 100

= 44.05%

≈ 44%
