• Loss % = 10%

To find:

• SP of half a dozen lemons.

Solution:

Let's find the loss amount:

Loss amount of half dozen lemons = Loss % of CP

= 10% of Rs 10

= 0.1 × Rs 10

= Rs 1

Now

Find the SP of half a dozen lemons

SP of half a dozen lemons = CP of half a dozen lemons - Loss amount

= Rs 10 - Rs 1

= Rs 9

Therefore, the selling price of half a dozen lemons is Rs 9.
