A man bought apples at 10 for Rs.75 and sold them at Rs.75 per dozen.Find his loss per cent.

Answered by admin @



Cost Price of 1 apple = Rs 75 ÷ 10 = Rs 7.50


Selling Price of 1 apple = Rs 75 ÷ 12 = Rs 6.25


Loss = Rs 7.50 - Rs 6.25 = Rs 1.25


Percentage loss = 1.25/7.5 x 100 = 16.67% (nearest hundredth)


Answer: 16.67%
