Question

Manoj purchased lemons for ₹600.He sold 3/4 of these at a lose of 20% and the remaining at a gain of 20%.How much percent does he gain or lose on the whole transaction​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let us suppose Manoj purchased x lemons.

He sold firstly,

3x/4 × 480 = 360x .

and after that he sold ,

x/4 × 720 = 180x .

Total Net worth = 360x + 180x = 540x

Loss % = (600-540)100/600 =60/6 = 10%
