    'A' bought a certain quantity of oranges at total cost of INR 1200/-. He sold 1/3rd of those oranges at 20% loss. If A earns an overall profit of 10%, at what percent profit did A sell the rest of the oranges

  • 16%
  • 15%
  • 22%
  • 25%
  • 20%
  • Explanation:

    Let A sold the rest of the oranges at the rate of x%.

    According to question,

    ⇒1200×1/3×80/100+1200×2/3×[100+x/100]=1200×110/100

    ⇒1200/100[80/3+2/3(100+x)] = 1200×110/100

    ⇒80+200+2x/3 = 110

    ⇒280+2x = 330

    ⇒2x = 50

    ⇒x = 25%
