in the case of the second carpet the cost price is 25.920 rupee and in this case the there is a loss of 4% so to find the loss we have to to find 4% of 25.92 and it is equals to 1.0 368 therefore the loss is rupees 1.0 368 then the selling price will be total price minus loss and it is equals to 24.8 832 here it is written that find what will be the overall profit or loss so add court at hotels cost price then at total selling price here are the selling price is more than cost price so there is an overall profit
