Solutions :-
We have,
Selling price of two articles is Rs 375 each.
Find the Cost Price of one article at 25% gain :-
C.P = (S.P × 100)/(100 + gain)
= (375 × 100)/(100 + 25)
= 37500/125
= 300
Find the Cost price of other articles at 25% loss :-
C.P = (S.P × 100)/(100 - loss)
= (375 × 100)/(100 - 25)
= 37500/75
= 500
Now,
Cost Price of two articles = Rs (300 + 500) = Rs 800
Selling price of two articles = Rs (375 + 375) = Rs 750
Cost Price > Selling price
Loss = C.P - S.P
= Rs (800 - 750)
= Rs 50
Loss % = (loss × 100)/C.P %
= (50 × 100)/800 %
= 5000/800 %
= 6.25%
Answer : The loss percent in the whole transaction = 6.25%

Now,

Selling price of two articles = Rs (375 + 375) = Rs 750
Cost Price > Selling price
Loss = C.P - S.P
= Rs (800 - 750)
= Rs 50
Loss % = (loss × 100)/C.P %
= (50 × 100)/800 %
= 5000/800 %
= 6.25%
Answer : The loss percent in the whole transaction = 6.25%
