Question

. A shopkeeper bought two bikes ₹ 40,000 each. He sold one at a profit 20% and

other at a loss of 10% . Find the gain or loss on the whole transaction.​

Answer 1

Answer:

gain or profit = 4000

Step-by-step explanation:

1st bike

40000 × 20 / 100 =8000

gain = 8000

selling price = 48000

2nd bike

40000 × 10/100= 4000

loss = 4000

selling price = 36000

selling price of 1st + 2nd bike = total s.p.

48000 + 36000 = 84000

84000- 80000 =4000

Answer 2

Answer:

Not a bad question let's start

Two articles for 1000 each

For first article

30% profit or gain means. SP = cost price + 30%of CP(cost price)

=1000 + 30/100 ×1000

=1000 +300 =1300

Similarly for

Second article

20% loss means SP (SELLING PRICE)=1000(CP)- (subtracting because it is loss) 20% of CP

= 1000–200(20% of CP) =800

now you asked overall gain or loss

So total money spend =1000+ 1000

total money get = 1300 + 800 =2100

So clearly it is profit or gain Bravo!

Now how much profit you gain

=total money get- total money spend

=2100 - 2000= 100

now gain percentage =profit ÷CP×100=100 /2000×100=5% gain

Now give me party for your 5%profit
