Rs 48 dozen means Rs 4 per orange. Sale price of 100 oranges = Rs 400 Cost price of 100 oranges = Rs 350 Profit = Rs 50 Profit% = 50/350 * 100

350 / 100 = Rs. 3.50 per orange. 1 dozen = 12 pieces. Therefore, sale price is 48/12 = Rs. 4. Therefore, profit = 4 - 3.5 = Rs. 0.50 per orange.

Each orange cost 350/100=3.5 Rs; selling cost of each orange is=48/12=4 Rs; 100 oranges selling cost=4*100=400; profit%=(selling price-cost price)/cost price*100; =(400-350)/350*100; =(50/350)*100; =14.26%
