A shopkeeper sells an article for rupees 800 at a gain of 25% and another for rupees 950 at a loss of 5% find his total profit or loss in percent
Answers
Answer:
= 6.71
Step-by-step explanation:
SP of articles = 800
Profit = 25%
CP of articles =SP×100/(100+profit)
800×100/(100+25)
800×100/125
800× 4/5
160×4
640
SP of second article = 950
Loss = 5%
CP of the article =SP×100/(100-Loss)
950×100/(100-5)
950×100/95
10×100
1000
Total CP of articles = (1000+640)=1640
Total SP of articles = (800+950)=1750
Profit =(1750-1640)= 110
Profit % = profit /CP ×100 =110/1640×100=6.707
= 6.71
