the profit on mangoes is 50%(cp=2,sp=3)
profit on apples is 100%(cp=1,sp=2)
so technically the net profit will be between 50 and 100 %...whatever may the quantity be.....

Question:

Ocean Chhikara buys some apples and mangoes from the market at a rate such that a mango is two times costlier than an apple and he sells them such that a mango is sold at thrice the cost price of an apple. By selling the apple at twice its cost price, he makes 150% profit. Find the ratio of apples to the mangoes?

Options:
