Answer 2

SP of 1st cow = 5000.

Gain = 10%

CP = SP * 100/100 + Gain%

= 5000 * 100/100 + 10

= 500000/110

= 4545.45

SP of 2nd cow = 5000

Loss = 10%

CP = SP * 100/100 - Loss%

= 5000 * 100/100 - 5

= 500000/95

= 5263.15

Total CP of both cows = ₹(4545.45 + 5263.15)

= 9808.6

Total SP of both cows = ₹(5000 + 5000)

= 10000

Here,

SP > CP = Profit

Profit = SP - CP

= (10000 - 9808.6)

= 191.4

Loss % = Profit/CP × 100

= (191.4/9808.6) * 100

= 1.95

Hope this helps!
