A man purchases 12 apples for Rs 8 and sells 8 apples for Rs 12. How much profit does he make ?

Answer»

125%



Suppose the man bought 12 x 8 = 96 APPLES
CP of 96 apples = 8/12 x 96 = Rs. 64
SP of 96 apples = 12/8 x 96 = Rs. 144
∴ Profit = Rs. 144 - Rs. 64 = Rs. 80
∴ % Profit = 80/64 x 100 = 125%
