. A man purchased two taperecorders for 1800 each and sold one of them at 10% profit and other taperecorder at a price that there was a total loss of 180 in the whole transaction. Find the loss percentage on the second taperecorder:​

Answer 1

Answer:

he price of one tape recorder is 1800

he sold one for 10% profit

1800×10/100

=180

profit price = 1800+180

=1980

the second one he got 180 rupees loss

loss percentage = z

1800×z/100

1800z/100=180

18z = 180

z= 180/18

z= 10

loss percentage =10%

note: I took a z instead of x because it  may confuse because of multiplication symbol
