Given, land cost = 480000 and he sells at 2/5 at a loss of = 6%.
2/5 * 480000 - 0.6(2/5) * 480000
2/5 * 480000 * (1 - 0.6)
192000 * 0.94
= 180480.
Given gain= 10%.
= 110/100 * 480000
= 528000.
Selling price will be 528000 - 180480 = 347520.
Remaining 3/5 land = 3/5 * 480000
= 288000.
Gain% = 347520 - 288000/288000 * 100
= 0.00206
= 20.6%.
2/5 * 480000 - 0.6(2/5) * 480000
2/5 * 480000 * (1 - 0.6)
192000 * 0.94
= 180480.
Given gain= 10%.
= 110/100 * 480000
= 528000.
Selling price will be 528000 - 180480 = 347520.
Remaining 3/5 land = 3/5 * 480000
= 288000.
Gain% = 347520 - 288000/288000 * 100
= 0.00206
= 20.6%.
