Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A trader bought 10 kg of apples for Rs. 405 out of which 1 kg of apples were found to be rotten. If he wishes to make a profit of 10% at what rate should he sell the remaining apples per kg?

A) 49.5

 B) 48

C) 46

 D) 47

Correct Answer:

A) 49.5

Description for Correct answer:

Given CP of 10kg. aples = 405

But 1 kg rotten

∴Remaining = 9 kg apple

∴CP of 1 kg apple = 4059=45

To gain 10% of 45 = 4.5

SP = 45 + 4.5 = Rs. 49.5

Answer 2

total quantity = 16kg , 1kg = 1000g

thus 16kg = 16 × 1000 = 16000g

rotten apples = 1kg789g

1000g + 789g = 1789g

eaten apples = 10kg56g

10 × 1000g + 56g = 10056g

remaining apples

= total - ( rotten + eaten)

= 16000 - (1789 + 10056)

= 4155g

= 4kg155g

Answer: remaining apples = 4kg155g
