Swapna bought 15 apples for Rs.10 and sold them at the rate of 12 apples for Rs.12. What is the percentage of profit made by her?

1) 100%
2) 150%
3) 125%
4) None of these

• ans:=150%
  number of apples bought, L.C.M of 15,12 is 60
  c.p of 60 apples= 10/15*60=40
  s.p of 60 apples= 12/12*60=60
  profit=60-40=20
  profit%=(gain*100/c.p)
  (20*100/40)=50
  so total profit gained=150%
