Answer:
S.P = 924
Gain % = 20
Loss % = 20
C.P=
100+20
100
×924=
120
100
×924=770
C.P with 20% Loss =
100−20
100
×924=
80
100
×924=1155
with CP of one article = 770
C.P of 2nd article = 1155
total CP = 770+1155= 1925
total S.P = 924×2=1848
total loss = 1925−1848
= 77 Rs

Answer:
Loss=Rs 77
Step-by-step explanation:
let CP of the paintings is 100x and 100y
then SP1=100x+20x=120x=924
x=924/120
Sp2=100y-20y=80y=924
y=924/80
Total CP=100(x+y)
=100*(924/120+924/80)
=92400(120+80)/120*80
=924*200/96
CP=1925
SP=sp1+sp2=924*2=1848
Thus loss=1925-1848
=Rs 77
