full solution please..​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

c.p. 120*4= 480

60% oranges= 120×60/100=72

SP of 72 oranges= 72×5=360

sp of remaining oranges=48×3.5= 168

total SP= 360+168=528

profit=528-480= 48

profit %= 48×100/480=10%

Answer 2

Answer:

10% profit

given,

Cost price= 120×4=48

60% of 120 which is 72

remaining oranges are 120-72=48

Step-by-step explanation:

cost of 72 oranges which are sold at ₹5 is 360

cost of 48 oranges which are sold at ₹3.50 is168

total selling price is equal to 360+168=528

profit is equal to 528-480=48

formula:

profit percentage= profit ×100/cost price

=48×100/480

4800/480

which is equal to 10%
