A fruit-seller bought 75 kg apples at Rs. 30 per kg. He sold one-third apples at a loss of 5%. At what rate should he sell the remaining so that his overall gain is 10%? ​

Answer:

  • Rs. 35.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost:

  • 75*30 = 2250

One-third sold at a loss of 5%:

  • 1/3*75*30*(1 - 0.05) = 712.5

Amount needed to get 10% gain:

  • 2250*(1 + 0.1) - 712.5 = 1762.5

Rate required:

  • 1762.5 ÷ 2/3(75) =
  • 1762.5/50 =
  • 35.25
