Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the price od 1 scallions weight 6ounces, 6 bunches of scallion wwill weight 6(6) i.e 36 ounces.

Cost price = 36 ounces.

%Loss = 19%

Get the selling price

%Loss = 36-Sp/36 * 100

19 = 36-Sp/36 * 100

0.19 = 36-Sp/36

0.19 * 36 = 36-Sp

7.41 = 36-Sp

Sp = 7.41 + 36

Sp = 43.41 ounces

If after cleaning you have 29.5 ounces of cleaned scallions, then then;

% gain = 43.41-29.5/29.5 * 100

%gain = 13.91/29.5 * 100

%gain = 47.2%

Hence the yield percent id 47.2%
