Question

A shopkeeper sold two tables for 7 1485 each. On one he gains 10% and on the
other he loses 10%. His gain or loss % in the whole transaction is
(a) 1% loss
(b) 1% gain (c) neither gain nor loss (d) 4% gain​

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

Rs 30 loss

Explanation:

If a person sells a table at Rs 1485 and suffers a loss of 10per cent

Then the price at which the person bought the table for is

cost price= (selling price)*100/loss(or profit)                         {if loss is in per cent}

therefore by this method the cost price of 1st table is 1650

and 2nd table is  is 1350 which is a sum of 3000 rupees

but the shopkeeper earned just 2970 rupees(1485 * 2)

therefore 30 rs loss is incurred
