Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

profit of 20% => 20/100 => 1/5

means 1 of profit at 5

let suppose CP = 5 and SP = 6

loss of 5% => 5/100 => 1/20

means 1 of loss at 20

let suppose CP = 20 and SP = 19

I'm using ratio method

CP SP

5 : 6

* *

20 : 19

_______

100 : 115

Difference of CP and SP is 15

15 ratio = 360

1 ratio = 360/15

1 ratio = 24

then, Cost price of apple is 5 ratio the 5*24 = 120

Total CP of apples = 120

Cost price of 1 apple is 5

then, Number of apple is 120/5 = 24

24 Apples has been purchased
