Question

Sandeep sold 15 kg apples for Rs 2100 and made a profit of 12.5% at what price per kg should he sell to gain 15% (answer is Rs. 21/kg)

Answer 1

Answer:

143.11/kg

Step-by-step explanation:

apples sold = 15 kg

selling price = ₹2100

Say cost price for 15kg=x

X(1+0.125)=2100

X=1866.67

need to make profit of 15%

sale price=1866.67(1+0.15)=2146.67

price per kg= 2146.67/15=143.11/kg
