Question

A man sold two cycles at rupees 960 each. On one, he gained 20%
and on the other , he lost 20%. Find his net gain % or loss % in the
whole transaction.

Answer 1

Answer:

4% loss

Step-by-step explanation:

Cycle 1

SP = 960 rupees

profit = 20%

SP = CP + Profit

SP = CP + 20% of CP

SP = 1.2 CP

CP = SP/1.2 = 960/1.2 = 800 RUPEES

-------------------------------

Cycle 2

SP = 960 rupees

LOSS = 20%

SP = CP - loss

SP = CP  - 20% of CP

SP = 0.8 CP

CP = SP/0.8 = 960/0.8 = 1200 RUPEES

----------------------------

CP of both cycle = 800 + 1200 = 2000 rupees

SP of both cycle = 960 + 960 = 1920 rupees

loss = 2000 - 1920 = 80 rupees

% loss = (loss / CP) * 100 = 80/2000 * 100 = 4%
