As given he bought them at $40 per 12 lemons so the cost of 1 lemon = 40/12 = 10/3
CP = 10/3
As given he sold them at $40 per 10 lemons so cost 1 lemon = 10/40 = 1/4
SP = 1/4
CP > SP , there will be loss
CP – SP = 37/12
Then find the percent by the original value
As given he bought them at $40 per 12 lemons so the cost of 1 lemon = 40/12 = 10/3
CP = 10/3
As given he sold them at $40 per 10 lemons so cost 1 lemon = 10/40 = 1/4
SP = 1/4
CP > SP , there will be loss
CP – SP = 37/12
Then fnd the percent by orginal value
