Question

Anita bought 51 tubers of yam at 3 for 10.00 Ghana cedis.if she sold them and made a loss of 40%, how much did she sell each tuber of yam?

Answer 1

51 tubers of yams at 3 for $10...
51/3 * 10 = $ 170

10/3 = 3.33 per yam
60% of 3.33 = 0.60(3.33) = 2.00

check :
51 * 2 = 0.60(170)
102 = 102 (correct)

she sold each yam for $ 2.00
