Question

Mohan bought a plot for Rs. 5,00,000 and sold 1/2 of plot at
10% profit and remaining 1/2 of plot at 15% profit. What pecent
will he gain on total ?​

Answer 1

12.5%

because 1/2 of 500000 is 250000

and he profit of 10% in 250000 which mean 25000

and 2nd time he gain 15% of 250000 which mean 37500

total gain = 62500

percent of gain = 62500 × 100 / 500000 =12.5

which mean he gain 12.5%
