  We know that, one dozen $$ = 12 units$$\$$

then, 300 units 

                          $$ = frac30012 =25 $$\$$dozen 

Total number of plantain fruits that person bought $$ =25 dozen $$\$$

Cost of 25 dozen plantain fruits $$ =25 imes 1360 = 3400 $$\$$

To get a profit of Rs. 36 

then sell at the price $$ =3400 + 36 = 34036$$\$$

Therefore selling price of 25 dozen fruits $$ = 34036$$\$$

The selling price of 1 dozen fruits 

                                                   $$ =frac3403625 = 1361.44 $$\$$

Hence, the selling price of 1 dozen fruits $$ = Rs.1361.44 $$\$$
