₹100 |
The number of roses, lilies and sunflowers sold from that shop on that day were 7, 5, and 10, respectively Profit = Selling price - Cost price Sum of profit earned by selling a rose , a lily and a sunflower on that day = \(\frac{800 - 450}{7}\) + \(\frac{720 - 540}{7}\) + \(\frac{630 - 490}{7}\) = \(\frac{350}{7}\) + \(\frac{180}{5}\) + \(\frac{140}{10}\) = 50 + 36 + 14 = 100 |
