A man buys 200 oranges for Rs.1,000. How many oranges for Rs.100 can he sell to that his profit percentage is 25%?
Correct Answer: Description for Correct answer:
Item Rs
C.P 200 1000
S.P x 100
Profit percent = \( \Large \frac{200 x 100 - 1000 \times x}{1000x} \)
\( \Large 25 = \left(\frac{20000 -1000 x}{1000x}\right)100 \)
1000x =(20000 - 1000x) X 4
1000x = 80000 - 4000x
5000x = 80000
x = 16
Option (C)is correct.
