A fruitseller bought 50 kg of fruits. He sold 30 kg of fruits for the cost price of 35 kg of fruits and he sold the remaining quantity for the cost price of 16 kg of fruits. Calculate his profit or loss precent in the total transaction. help!!

2% profit

Step-by-step explanation:

x = price

50kg = 50x

30kg => 35x

20kg => 16x

35x + 16x = 51x

51x - 50x = x

50x 100%

x p%

p = 1×100/50 = 100/50 = 2%

let the CP of per kg fruits be x

subsequently it became,

profit=SP-CP

        =51x-50x

        =x

Profit%=P/CP*100%

          =x/50x*100%

          =2%

So, the profit% is 2%

solved

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2

i believe the answer is c.
