Answer 1

Answer:

12,051

Step-by-step explanation:

Given When fresh fish is dried it become two third of its weight. Rahul bought 309 kg fish of fresh fish at the rate of rs 21 per kg and dried. he sold them at 90 rs per kg. he earn in all

Now one kg of fish costs Rs 21

Therefore 309 kg of fish will cost 309 x 21 = Rs 6489

After drying it becomes 2/3 of its weight

So 2/3 x 309 = 206 kg of fish remains

So he sells the fish at 90 Rs per kg

So for 206 kg it will be 206 x 90 = Rs 18,540

So in all he earns 18,540 - 6489 = Rs 12,051

So profit will be Rs 12,051

Answer 2

Answer:

Profit = Rs 12051

Profit % = 185.71%

Step-by-step explanation:

Rahul bought 309 kg

Cost per kg = Rs 21

Cost Price = 21 * 309 = Rs 6489

Fish after dried = (2/3)309 = 206 kg

Seling price = rs 90 per kg

Selling Price = 206 * 90 = Rs 18540

Profit = 18540 - 6489 = Rs 12051

Profit % = (12051/6489) * 100 =  185.71%
