sudha bought a carton of bulbs cantaining 100bulbsfor₹5000.she soldhalf ofthemfor₹60per piece. twentybulbs were defective. the remaining bulbs she sold at₹48per bulb. find loss or gain percent​

Answer 1

Answer:

no of bulbs=100

price of bulbs=5000

50 bulbs were sold at the price of 60×50=3000

20 bulbs were defected

so rest of bulbs are 30

30 bulbs were sold at the price of 48

So rest of the bulbs were sold at the rate of 48×30=1440

so percentage of loss

= 1440+3000/5000×100

= 12.2%
