Question

a fruit seller bought 75 kg apples at rs 30 per kg he sold one
third apples at a loss of 5% at what rate should he sell the
remaiing so that his overall gain is 10%
ans rs 33 83/kg

Badal Agrawal · Answer

cp of 75 kg apples = 30 *7
profit needed= 10%
therefore sp of 75kg apples = 2475rupees
cp of 25 kg apples= 750 rupees
sp of 75 kg apples = 712 5 rupees
therefore he has to sell the remaining 50 kgs in 2475 -712 5
rupees= 1762 5 rupees
therfore sp of 1 kg = 1762 5 / 50 = 35 25 rupees
