Question

a man sells two horess for RS 3910each gain 15% on the other find the total gain or loss​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

using the 100 concept

let the cost price of each table be rs 100

the first table is sold at 15 % gain so its selling price would be 115.

also it is given that selling price of table is 3910.

Now 3910/115=34.

so cost price of 1st table is 100*34= 3400.

Now the second table is sold at a loss of 15% so selling price of second table is 85.

Now 3910/85 =43

cost price of 1st table is 100*46= 4600.

now total cost =3400+4600=8000

total selling price= 3910*2=7820.

so loss= 8000-7820=180.
