A man bought apples at 10 for Rs. 75 and sold them at Rs.75 per dozen. Find his loss per cent.

Answer»

CP of 1 Apple = 75/10 

= Rs.7.5 

CP of 1 Dozen Apple = 7.5 × 12 

= Rs.90 

SP of 1 Dozen Apple = Rs.75 

Loss = CP – SP 

= 90 - 75 

= 15

\(Loss\%=\frac{Loss\times100}{CP}\)

\(=\frac{15\times100}{90}\)

= 16.66%
