      Question

      6 mangoes are bought for Rs 24 and 3 mangoes are sold

      for Rs 18. Find the percentage profit or loss. 
      A 50% profit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 54% Loss Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 74% Loss Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 62% profit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ₹24 for 6 mangoes → Cost Price (C.P.) of 1 mango = ₹24 ÷ 6 = ₹4 ₹18 for 3 mangoes → Selling Price (S.P.) of 1 mango = ₹18 ÷ 3 = ₹6 Now, Profit = S.P. - C.P. = ₹6 - ₹4 = ₹2 Profit % = 2/4 x 100 = 50%
