Question

what is the percentage of profit if you buy 12 items for Rs 10 and sell 10 items for Rs 12?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the dealer purchasing 12 apples and selling 10 apples, then take the LCM of 12 and 10, which will come 60.

Now, CP of 12 apples are ₹ 10,

Then, the CP of 60 Apples will be ₹ 50.

And, the SP of 10 apples are ₹ 12,

Then the SP of 60 apples are ₹ 72.

Now the Profit on 60 Apples=SP-CP=72–50=₹ 22.

Profit%= (22×100)/50=44%

Hence the profit will be 44%.

Answer 2

Answer:

the shopkeeper purchasing 12 chocolates and selling 10 chocolates, then take the LCM of 12 and 10 which will come 60.

Step-by-step explanation:

Now CP of 12 chocolate are ₹ 10

Then, the CP of 60 chocolates will be ₹60

And the SP of 10 chocolates are ₹ 12

then the SP of 60 chocolates are ₹72

now the profit on 60

chocolates = SP - CP =72 - 50 = 44%

hence the profit will be 44%
