Question

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

Answer 1

$C.P$ of $1$ apple $=Rs.\frac{75}{10}=Rs.7.5$

$S.P$ of $1$ apple $=Rs.\frac{75}{12}=Rs.6.25$

Therefore,

$LOSS=7.5-6.25$

$LOSS=Rs.1.25$

$LOSS\left(\%\right)=\frac{1.25}{7.5}\times 100$

$LOSS\left(\%\right)=16.67\%$

Hence, this is the answer.
