13. A vendor purchased bananas at 40 per dozen and sold them at 10 for 36. Find his gain
or loss per cent.
Hint. Let the number of bananas bought be lcm (12, 10) = 60,​

Answer 1

Answer:

∴ The Gain percent is 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the SP of 10 bananas = ₹36

SP of 1 banana = ₹36/10=₹3.6

SP of 1 dozen bananas = ₹3.6×12=₹43.20

CP of 1 dozen bananas = ₹40

Since, SP is more than CP so it’s a gain.

Gain=SP−CP=43.20−40=23.2

Gain%=(3.2×100)/40

=8%
