Question

If a shopkeeper buys almonds at 250per kg and sells them at rs 10 per 50gm,find the loss or gain percent

Answer 1

HEY......!!! here is ur answer.......☺️☺️☺️

Given that, shopkeeper buys almonds at 250Rs per kg

then Cost Price of 1 kg almonds = 250

=> C.P. of 1000 gm almonds = 250

=> C.P. of 1 gm almonds = 25/100Rs. = 1/4Rs.

and given that he sells them at 10Rs per 50gm

then S.P. if 50gm almonds = 10Rs.

=> S.P. of 1 gm almonds = 10/50Rs. = 1/5Rs.

Then, he got loss because c.p. is more than s.p.

and Loss = C.P. - S.P.

=> Loss = 1/4–1/5

=> Loss = (5–4)/20 = 1/20Rs.

Now, Loss% = (loss/C.P.)×100

=> Loss% = (1/20/1/4)×100

=> Loss% = (4/20)×100 = 20% «««««Ans.
