Question

Joshi bought 5 Quintal potatoes at ₹200 per Quintal and paid a total cartage of ₹40.50. He sold these at ₹230.25 per Quintal. Find his profit.

Answer 1

Answer: Rs.110.75

Step-by-step explanation:

If C.P. of 1quintal =rs.200

Then C.P. of 5quintal = rs.200×5=rs.1000

Cartage paid =rs.1000+40.50=1040.5

S.P. of 5 quintal potatoes =5×230.25=1151.25

Profit =1151.25-1040.5 = rs.110.75
