Answer 1

Answer:

2%

Step-by-step explanation:

1st cow selling price is 14% less of 80000 or 86% of 80000

sp of 1st cow = 80000*86/100

=68,800

Sp of 2nd cow 11 % more of 80000 or 110% of 80000

Sp of 2nd cow = 80000*110/100

= 88000

over all sp = 68800+88000= 156800

CP = 80000+80000 = 160000

loss =160000-156800 = 3200

loss % = 3200/160000 * 100

=2%

final ans 2%
