otal banana he bought =50 dozen

Cp of 50 dozen =50x15=750₹

Half of the stock =25 dozen

Sp of 25 dozen =25x20=500

Sp of another half stock =25x10=250

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

8 dozen bananas= 12×8 bananas

=96 bananas

Bought price= 20 per dozen

Total paid= 20×8=160

10 were rotten, so ramaining banana;

Sold Total price= 86×3=258

So he has a profit,

Profit=258-160= 98/-
