Answer 1

Answer:

Profit% = 2.99%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the CP of the 1st TV be x

Then,

SP = Profit/ 100 × CP + CP

5000 = 15/100 × x + x

5000 = 15x/100 + x

5000 = 115x/100

x = (5000 × 100) / 115

CP of the 1st TV = Rs.4347

Let the CP of the 1st TV be x

Then,

SP = Loss/ 100 × CP - CP

5000 = 15/100 × x - x

5000 = 15x/100 - x

5000 = 85x/100

x = (5000 × 100) / 85

CP of the 2nd TV = Rs.5882

Total SP = 5000 + 5000 = 10,000

Total CP = 4347 + 5882 = 10229

As CP>SP it is a loss

Loss = SP-CP

10229 - 10000 = Rs.229

Loss % = 229/10229 × 100 = 2.92%
