Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If Raju Tamang bought 40 kg of rice at Rs 80 per kg, the cost price of 40 kg of rice will be 40*80 = Rs 3200
If he sold 25 kg of rice at Rs 84 per kg, the selling price of 25kg of the rice will be 25*84 = Rs 2100
Remaining quantity of rice remaning = 40kg - 25 kg = 15kg
There will be 15kg of rice left to be sold.
If the remaining quantity is sold at Rs 76 per kg, the selling price of the remaining 15kg of rice will be 15*76 = Rs 1140
Total selling price = Rs 2100+ Rs 1140
Total selling price (sp)= Rs 3240
Since cost price (cp)= Rs 3200
% Profit = [tex]\dfrac{sp-cp}{cp} \times 100%[/tex]
%Profit = [tex]\frac{3240-3200}{3200} \times 100%[/tex]
%Profit = [tex]\frac{40}{3200} \times 100 %\\[/tex]
%profit = [tex]\frac{40}{32}[/tex]
%profit = [tex]1.25%[/tex]%
Raju made a profit of Rs 40 and his percentage profit is 1.25%
