प्रश्न
A trader bought 25 boxes of soap from a retailer at Rs.180 per box. If each box contains 12 bars of soaps and the trader sells the soap pieces at Rs. 18 per bar, find the profit or loss percent.
उत्तर
Cost of one box = Rs.180
∴ C.P. of 25 boxes = Rs.180 x 25 = Rs.4500
One box contains = 12bars
∴ 25 boxes contain
= 12 x 25
= 300 bars
∴ S.P. of 25 boxes
= Rs.18 x 300
= Rs.5400
∵ S.P. > C.P.
Profit
= S.P. - C.P.
= Rs. (5400 - 4500)
= Rs.900
Profit %
=`"Profit"/"C.P." xx 100`
= `(900)/(4500) xx 100`
= 20%.
