Answer 1

Answer:

Sp of buffalo1 = Rs 20,000

Gain =5%

So, Cost price of buffalo1 =  

105

100

​  

×20,000= Rs. 19047.62

SP of buffalo2 = Rs 20,000

Loss =10%

Cost price of buffalo2 =  

90

100

​  

×20,000= Rs 22,222.22

Total Cost price = Rs 41269.84

Total selling price = Rs 40,000

Loss = Rs 1269.84

$\underline{\boxed{\bold\blue{Answer}}}</p><p>$

$S.P \: of \: buffalo \: 1 =\red{ Rs 10,000}$

$Profit =\red{ 5\%}$

$Cost \: price \: of \: buffalo \: 1 = \red{\frac{100}{105}×10,000}$

$\red{Rs = 9,523.80952}$

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

$S.P \: of \: buffalo \: 2 = \red{Rs 10,000}$

$loss= \red{10\%}$

$Cost \: of \: buffalo \: 2 = \red{\frac{100}{90}×10,000}$

$\red{11,111.1111}$

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

$Total cost =\red{ 9,523.80952+11,111.1111}$

$\red{20,634.9206}$

$Total \: selling \: price = \red{20,000}$

$Loss = \red{634.9206}$
