Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Given :Total chocolates = 160 for price 480

To find : SP of 1 chocolate

Explanation:

cost price of the 1 chocolate = $\frac{480}{160}$ = Rs. 3

profit of 160 chocolates =

30% of 480

$\frac{30}{100}\times 480$

= Rs. 144

on giving 25% that means

$\frac{1}{4}$  of the cost price

i.e

160-40 = 120 chocolates

then

SP-CP = profit on 1 chocolate

total profit = $120\times (P-CP)$

$144 = 120\times (P-3)\\P = 4.2$

thus , The price of 1 chocolate is Rs, 4.2
