virender purchased 50 dozen mangoes for rupees 135 per dozen.Five dozen mangoes could not be sold because they were rotten.At what price per dozen should virender sell the remaining mangoes so that he could make a profit of 20 percent
Answers
Answer:
Rs. 180
Step-by-step explanation:
Total quantity of mangoes = 50 dozens
Rotten mangoes = 5 dozen
Remaining quantity of mangoes = 45 dozens
The cost price CP= 50x135 = Rs. 6750
The required profit P =20%
The selling price (SP) needs to be calculated.
The profit P = [( selling price- cost price)/ selling price ] X 100
- P =[ (SP-CP)/CP] X 100
- 20 = [(SP - 6750) / 6750] X 100
- SP = [ (20/100) X 6750 ] + 6750
- = 1350 + 6750 = 8100
The selling price for 45 dozens = 8100
So, the selling price of each dozen = 8100/45 = 180 rupees.

Answer:
180.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of 50 dozen mangoes is ₹.135 per dozen.
Rotten mangoes = 5 dozen.
Remaining quality of mangoes is = 45dozens.
C. P = 50 * 135. = ₹.6750.
Required profit p= 20%.
Now we want to calculate S. P.
Then,
Profit P= [(S.P- C. P) / C. P]*100.
20 =( S. P - 6750) /
6750*100.
S. P =
[ 20/100*6750 ]+6750.
= 1350+ 6750
= 8100.
Now cost of remaining mangoes are = 8100/ 45.
= 180.
