A dishonest shopkeeper sold onions at Rs. 30/kg which he has bought at Rs. 20/kg. He gave 750g instead of 1 kg. Find his actual profit percentage.1). 10%2). 25%3). 50%4). 100%

Answer»

Weight of ONIONS bought by customer = 1 kg

Actual weight of onions received by customer = 750 g = 0.75 kg

PRICE paid by the customer = Rs. 30

Actual price of 0.75 kg = 0.75 × 20 = Rs. 15

∴ Money earned by the shopkeeper = 30 – 15 = Rs. 15

PROFIT percentage = (15/15) × 100 = 100%
