FIND the C.P of all bananas ,the S.P of all bananas , the profit and the profit percent ? Solution :- given, → CP of banana => 5 banana For = Rs. 7 → SP of banana => 6 banana for = Rs. 10 in order to make quantity same multiply CP by 6, and SP by 5 , we get, → CP of banana => 30 banana For = Rs. 42 → SP of banana => 30 banana for = Rs. 50 . So, → CP of 30 banana is = Rs.42 → CP of 1 banana is = Rs.(42/30) → CP of 25 dozen banana = (42/30) * (25 * 12) = Rs.420 (Ans.) And, → SP of 30 banana is = Rs.50 → SP of 1 banana is = Rs.(50/30) → SP of 25 dozen banana = (50/30) * (25 * 12) = Rs.500 (Ans.) Rs.500 (Ans.) Therefore, → Total Profit = SP - CP = 500 - 420 = Rs.80 (Ans.) Hence, → Profit % = (Profit in Rs. * 100) / CP → Profit % = (80 * 100) / 420 → Profit % = 19.04% (Ans.)
