Question

Kantabai bought 25 saris from a wholesale merchant for ₹10000 and sold them all at ₹460 each. How much profit did Kantabai get in this transaction?

Answer 1

Kantabai bought 25 saries from a wholesale merchant for 10000 rupees

so, 25 saries = 10000
1 sary = 10000/25
1 sary = 400 rupees

sold them all 25 saries at 460 rupees each

so, kantabai sold each sary at 60 rupees profit

then, profit = 25*60 = 1500

Kantabai sold 25 saries at a profit of 1500 rupees
