Solution

As per question,
So, net amount babita paid $= 48 \times 160 = R s . 7680$
She sold $70 %$ of mangoes at $R s . 70 p e r k g$
So, cost of $705$ of mangoes $= 160 \times \frac{70}{100} \times 70 = R s . 7840$
Net amount received after selling mangoes,
$= 7840 + 1920 = R s . 9760$
We know that, $S P > C P .$ So, there is a gain;
Gain $= S P - C P = 9760 - 7680 = 2080$
Again, we know that,
Gain percentage $= \frac{G a i n}{C P} \times 100 = \frac{2080}{7680} \times 100 = 27.80 %$
