A man buys 400 oranges for Rs. 2000. How many oranges can be sold for Rs. 260 so that he gets a profit of 30%?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 40.

Total CP = Rs 2000

Profit percentage = 30% 

SP = 2000 + 30% of 2000 = Rs. 2600

Selling Price of 400 Oranges = Rs.2600

Hence, the number of Oranges he must sell for Rs 260 = 400/10 = 40
