Question

lemons were bought at rs48 per dozen and sold at rs40 per 10 .find the loss% or gain%

Answer 1

$\mathbb{ SOLUTION }$ :

Cost of 12 lemons = Rs. 48

$\therefore$ Cost of 1 lemon = Rs. (48÷12) = Rs. 4

[ $\therefore$ 1 dozon = 12 pieces ]

Also,
10 lemons sold by = Rs. 40

$\therefore$ Selling Price of 1 lemon = Rs. (40÷10) = Rs. 4

$\therefore$ Cost Price of 1 lemon = Selling Price of 1 lemon

$\therefore$ $\bf{ no \: \:profit \: \: no\: \: loss }$

Answer 2

Here is your solution

Given :-

Lemons were bought at Rs48 per dozen

1 dozen lemon = 12  lemon

12 lemon cost 48

cost of one lemon = 48/12 = Rs 4

Now

A/q

In Rs 40 sell 10 lemon

so here

cost of 1 lemon also 40/10 = Rs4/lemon

Hence

Not profit and loss

so

neither loss % nor gain %
