Answer:

Fruit seller will get 20% profit in the transaction.

Explanation:

A fruit sellers purchases oranges at rate 3 for Rs 5

Cost of 3 oranges = Rs 5

Cost of 1 oranges = Rs \frac{5}{3}

Same fruit man sells them at rate 2 for Rs 4

Sale of 2 oranges = Rs 4

Sale of 1 oranges = Rs 2

If we see the price per oranges of cost price (CP) and selling price (SP).

SP>CP

It means fruit seller get profit per oranges.

Profit = SP-CP

P=2-\frac{5}{3}\Rightarrow \frac{1}{3}

Now we find profit percentage,

P\%=\frac{P}{CP}\times 100

P\%=\frac{1/3}{5/3}\times 100\Rightarrow 20\%

Thus, Fruit seller will get 20% profit in the transaction.
