Answer:
Purchasing rate = ₹45 per kg
Profit percent = 33.33%
Step-by-step explanation:
Selling price of 1 kg fruit = ₹60
Therefore, S. P. of 40 kg fruits = 40*60 = ₹2400
Gain = ₹ 600 (given)
Cost price (C. P.) = S. P. - Gain
= ₹2400 - ₹600
= ₹ 1800
Rate of purchasing
= C. P. /quantity of fruits
= 1800/40
= ₹45 per kg
Profit percent
= (Gain* 100)/C.P.
= (600*100)/1800
= 60000/1800
=33.33%
