Cost Price of 10 apples = Rs 1

Cost Price of 1 apple = Rs 1/10 i.e Rs 0.1

So, Cost Price of 12 apples (a dozen) = 12 *0.1

= Rs 1.2

Let the SP be Rs X

Profit = (SP of 12 apples-CP of 12 apples)

Profit = (X-1.2)

Profit ℅ ={ Profit /CP of 12 apples}*100

=>25= {(X-1.2)/1.2}*100

=> (25*1.2)/100 = X -1.2

=>0.3 =X-1.2

X =1.5

So the Selling price should be Rs 1.5 to make a profit of 25℅
