Question

A fruit seller purchased 8 kg apples at price of ₹ 41 per kg. If he sells all the apples at price of ₹ 400, how much total profit did he made?

• A. ₹ 73
• B. ₹ 71
• C. ₹ 72
• D. ₹ 74

Answer 1

The correct option is C ₹ 72

Amount received by selling the 8 kg apples
= ₹ 400

Amount spend on purchasing the one kg apples
= ₹ 41

Amount spend on purchasing the 8 kg apples
= ₹ 41 $\times$ 8
= ₹ 328

Profit
= Amount recieved - Amount spend
= ₹ 400 - ₹ 328
= ₹ 72
