Question

sohan bought 150 buckets at the rate of 80 rupees he sold 90 buckets at the rate of 95 rupees each and the remaining buckets at the rate of 75 rupees each find his profit or loss? please solve this question plz help

Answer 1

CP of 150 buckets=Rs 80×150=12000Rs
SP of 90 buckets = Rs95×90=8550Rs
remaining buckets =150-90=60buckets
SP of remaining buckets=60×75=4500Rs

Hence,Total CP of buckets= Rs 1200
Total SP of buckets= Rs8550+4500
= Rs 13050
so,SP>CP
=Rs 13050>Rs1200
= Profit

profit=Sp-cp=Rs13050-1200
=11850 Rs
