    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%
