on the whole he _.
a. lost rs. 1
b. gain rs.1
c. lost rs.2
d. gain rs.2​

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

SP of first book = Rs. 24, gain = 20%

CP of first book = (100/120) x 24 = Rs. 20

SP of second book = Rs. 24, loss = 20%

CP of second book = (100/80) x 24 = Rs. 30

Total CP = (20 + 30) = 50

Total SP = (24 x 2) = Rs. 48

Loss = (50 - 48) = Rs. 2

So, on the whole, there is a loss of Rs. 2
