Step-by-step explanation:
S.P of 1st article => 25920Rs.
Profit % => 8%
C.P => (100/100+Profit%)×S.P
=> 100/108×25920
=> 24000Rs.
Now, S.P of 2nd article => 25920Rs.
Loss% => 4%
C.P => (100/100-Loss%)×S.P
=> 100/96×25920
=> 27000Rs.
Total S.P => (2×25920)Rs.
=> 51840Rs.
Total C.P => (24000+27000)Rs.
=> 51000Rs.
Total Profit => 51840-51000
=> 840Rs.
Profit% => 840/51000×100
=> 1.647%
