Question

Sreya bought a plot for Rs. 6,00,000, then sold half of the plot at 10 % profit and rest at 15% profit. What is the total profit % that Sreya gain?

Answer 1

$10\%$ profit at half plot $=\frac{600000}{2}\times \frac{10}{100}=$ Rs.$30,000$

$15\%$ profit at remaining half plot $=\frac{600000}{2}\times \frac{15}{100}=$ Rs.$45,000$

Now, total profit $=30000+45000=75000$

Profit $\%=\frac{75000}{600000}\times 100=12.5\%$
