Download Solution PDFGiven:
Weight of fish = 9000 kg
S.P. of fresh fish = Rs. 30/kg
S.P. of dried fish = Rs. 120 /kg
When fresh fish dried it remain \(1 \over 3\) of its weight.
Formula:
Price of fish = Weight × Rate
Calculation:
Price on selling fresh fish = 9000 × 30
Price on selling fresh fish = 270000
Weight of dried fish = \({1 \over 3} × 9000\) = 3000
Price on selling dried fish = 3000 × 120
Price on selling dried fish = 360000
Difference of selling price = Selling price of dried fish - Selling price of fresh fish
Difference = 360000 - 270000
Difference = Rs. 90000
∴ If flora sells dried fish, she will get Rs. 90000 more than if she sells fresh fish.
