Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
cost price of 3 oranges = 80paise =80/100 =0.8 rupees
then,
cost price of 1 orange = 0.8/3 = 0.2
therefore, CP of 1 orange = 0.2
profit = 10
then , SP = CP + Profit
SP = 0.2+10 =10.2
If SP of 1 pen =1.5/5 = 0.3, then
SP of no of pens = 10.2
no.of pens = x
then, x=10.2/0.3
=34
therefore no.of pens to be selled =34
