Question

a milkman sold two of his buffaloes for rs20000each.on one he made a gain of 5%and on other a loss of 10%.find his overall gain or loss?

Answer 1

Here is your Answer brother
Here given
SP = 20000 each buffalo
profit on one buffalo = 5%
loss on another buffalo= 10%

let the cost price be X

$\frac{105}{100} \times x = 20000 \\ x = \frac{20000 \times 100}{105} \\ x = 19047.61 \\ \\ cost \: price \: second \: one \: buffalo \\ x \times \frac{90}{100} = 20000 \\ x = \frac{20000 \times 100}{90} \\ x = 22222.22 \\ now \: whole \: gain \: or \: loss \\ cp = 22222.22 + 19047.61 \\ cp = 41269.83 \\ sp = 20000 + 20000 = 40000 \\ here \: cp > sp \\ so \: here \: is \: loss \\ loss \: = 41269.83 - 40000 = 1269.83$

loss% = [(1269.83)/40000] × 100
= 3.17%
