Question
Solution
15 fruits for ₹140 → Cost per fruit = ₹9.33  10 fruits for ₹120 → Cost per fruit = ₹12  Let's assume 30 fruits are bought in total (15 from each category, making it equal).  All fruits are sold at ₹132 per dozen → Selling price per fruit = {132}/{12} = ₹11  Cost of first set of 15 fruits = ₹140  Cost of second set of 15 fruits = ₹180  Total cost price = ₹140 + ₹180 = ₹320  Total fruits = 30, Selling price per fruit = ₹11  Total selling price = 30 x 11 = ₹330  Profit = Selling Price - Cost Price = ₹330 - ₹320 = ₹10  Profit percentage = 10/320 x 100 = 3.125%
