    Answer:

    let the price of fruits be X per kg

    cp of 50kg of friuts =50x

    he sells 30kg of fruits on its cp of 35 kg

    cp of 30kg fruits=30x

    sp of 30kg fruits=35x

    remaing fruits is 20kg

    he sells 20kg of fruits on cp of 16kg

    cp of 20kg fruits=20x

    sp of 20kg fruits =16x

    total cp is =50x

    total sp is =(35+16) =51x

    sp>cp(it means profit)

    profit =sp-cp

    =51-50

    = 1

    profit%=gain/cp × 100

    = 1/50×100

    =2%
