Some mangoes were bought at the rate of Rs.1.50 per dozen and sold at the rate of Rs. 2.25 per dozen.
If there is a profit of Rs. 2.25 how many mangoes
were bought ?
f nnnes By selling

3 dozen of mangoes were bought.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mangoes were bought at the rate of Rs. 1.50 per dozen

Mangoes were sold at the rate of Rs. 2.50 per dozen

Profit made = Rs. 2.25

Let,

x be the dozen of mangoes bought.

Profit = Selling cost - Purchase cost

2.25 = 2.25x - 1.50x

2.25 = 0.75x

0.75x = 2.25

Dividing both sides by 0.75

Hence,

3 dozen of mangoes were bought.
