Question

After selling a certain quantity of fruits , Mohanlal realised that he was selling at a loss of 15% . He then sold the remaining fruits that he had at 20% profit such that he ended up with 0 per cent profit and 0 net loss . If he sold 40 Kg of fruits on loss , how many kgs of fruits did he sell on profit

Kratos · Answer

Assume, that the quantity of fruits sold at 20% profit be x' Kg and the cost price of each fruit be '1' Rs/kg. Thus, the simple and straight forward comprehension of the question is : 40(0.85) + x(1.2) = 40+x. Thus, x = 30 kg.
