Answer» Answer: Step-by-step explanation: So CP of 80 mangoes = RS 80. Number of mangoes which became rotten = 10. Number of mangoes AVAILABLE for sale = 70. SP of 1 mango = Rs 1.50. SP of 70 mangoes = 1.50 x 70 = Rs 105. Since SP > CP there is profit. Profit = SP - CP = 105 - 80 = Rs 25 (b) 25% is the answer ... :) #Pari Here... |
