Question

Keshav purchased some lemons he sold all the lemons. He sold 11 lemons for Rs 10 and incurred 30%loss what should be the selling rate if he incurs 20% loss

Answer 1

CP of 11 lemons =Rs 10
loss percent = 30%
we know that,
SP=CP×(100-loss percent)÷100
=10×(100-30)÷100

=Rs 7
loss=CP-SP
=10-7
=Rs 3
if Keshav wants 20% loss ,he must sell lemons for Rs 8
