Answer» Hyy Dude Given That: Selling price of 12 ORANGES = Cost price of 15 oranges Solution: Let the CP be ₹100 per orange. CP of 15 oranges = 15 × 100 = ₹1500. Then according to the given condition, we get SP of 12 oranges = ₹1500 Therefore, SP of 1 orange = 1500/12 = ₹125 Therefore, PROFIT = SP of 1 orange - CP of 1 orange = 125 - 100 = ₹25 Therefore, Profit Percentage = (25/100) × 100 = 25% Hence, Profit is 25% Hope you got it!. |
