Answered by Easy
1 quintals =48.95 Kg
Therefore, 5 quintals =244.75 kg
for 1 kg dealer paid 19 Rs.
for 244.75 kg dealer paid 19*244.75= 4650.25 RS
Dealer paid 500 for transportation so this is also a cost that includes with 4650.25 +500 Rs
which is 5150.25 Rs
Dealer sold 20.50 per kg
so for 244.75 kg he sold 20.50*244.75=5017.375 Rs
Profit = Cost-Sells
=5017.375-5150.25
=-132.875
which means the dealer did not make any profit. Other word the dealer lost 132.875 Rs in this business.
