Answer:
Loss of 4%
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to find the C. P. of the first cycle
=> (1+20/100)x = ₹960
120/100x = 960
x = 960 × 100/120
x = ₹ 800
Second we need to find the C. P. of the second cycle
=> (1-20/100)x = ₹960
80/100x = 960
x = 960 × 100/80
x = ₹1200
Total price gained after selling = ₹(960 ×2)
= ₹1920
Total price given while buying =1200 + 800
= ₹2000
Loss = 2000 - 1920
= ₹ 80
Therefore, Loss % = 80/2000 × 100
= 4% (ANSWER)
