Answer 1

3 for Rs80 and 5 for Rs1.50.

so, she should sell 1 orange for ₹40

so answer is ₹40

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Cost Price of 3 oranges =Rs 80=80/100

. =Rs 0.8p

C.P of 1 orange=0.8/3 = 0.2

therefore, CP of 1 orange=0.2

Profit= Rs 10

S.P=C.P+Profit

S.P=0.2+10= 10.2

SP of 1 oranage= 1.5/5=0.3

SP of orange =x

x=10.2/0.3

= 34

therefore 34 oranges should be sold by Jyanti to get Rs 10 profit
