Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

SP of apple=100*125%=125

Remaining apple=80-20=60

SP of an apple=125/60=2×1/2

Answer 2

Answer:

He must sell all the remaining apples at Rs. 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price of 100 apples is Rs. 80

20 apples are rotten

So, number of apples left to be sold = 100 - 20

                                                            = 80

These 80 apples should gain a profit of 25%

So, Selling price of the remaining apples = 80 + 25% of 80

                                                                    = 80 + 20

                                                                    = rs. 100

So, He must sell all the remaining apples at Rs. 100
