A Man Buys Oranges At Rs 5 A Dozen And An Equal Number At Rs 4 A Dozen. He Sells Them At Rs 5.50 A Dozen And Makes A Profit Of Rs 50. How Many Oranges Does He Buy?

Answer»

Cost Price of 2 dozen oranges Rs. (5 + 4) = Rs. 9.

Sell price of 2 dozen oranges = Rs. 11. 

If PROFIT is Rs 2, oranges bought = 2 dozen. 

If profit is Rs. 50, oranges bought = (2/2) * 50 dozens = 50 dozens.

Cost Price of 2 dozen oranges Rs. (5 + 4) = Rs. 9.

Sell price of 2 dozen oranges = Rs. 11. 

If profit is Rs 2, oranges bought = 2 dozen. 

If profit is Rs. 50, oranges bought = (2/2) * 50 dozens = 50 dozens.
