Question

A man sold 2 paintings for 924 rupees each. On one he gains 20% and on other he loses 20%. How much does he gain or lose in the whole transaction?

Answer 1

Answer:

4 %

Step-by-step explanation:

1st case

p=20%

sp=924

cp=924*100/100+20

=770

2nd case

l=20%

sp=924

sp=924*100/100-20

=1155

Total cp = 1155+770

=1925

Total sp =924+924

=1848

loss% =1925-1848/100*100 %

=4%
