Detailed Solution

A man buys lemons at 6 for Rs 10 and sells at 8 for Rs 15, his gain percent will be 12.5%.
Given that, a man buys lemons at 6 for Rs 10 and sells at 8 for Rs 15.
The cost price of lemon is

= 106

.
The selling price of the lemon is

= 158

.
We know that,
Gain = S.P. – C.P.

Gain = 158 − 106 = 45 − 40 24 = 524

To calculate gain %,

Gain ​ ​ % ​ ​ is = Gain CP × 100

Gain ​ ​ % ​ ​ = 524106 × 100 = 5 × 6 24 × 10 × 100 = 504 = 12.5 %
