SSC GD Constable (English) - 18th November 2021 Shift 3 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q56

A shopkeeper bought 600 oranges and 400 bananas. He found that 30% of oranges and 18% of bananas were rotten. Find the percentage of the fruits in good condition.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 74.8.

Calculations:

Good condition orange = 600 × 70/100 = 420

Good condition bananas = 400 × 82/100 = 328

Total fruits = 600 + 400 = 1000

Required percentage of good condition fruits = ((420 + 328)/1000) × 100

= 748/10 = 74.8%
