Answer 1

$\huge{\mathfrak{\blue{Answer}}}$

➪S.P of 1 st scooter = 35000

➪Profit = 25%

C.P of 1 st scooter = sp × 100 (100 + profit)

➪35000×100/(100+25)

➪35000×100 /125

➪28000

S.P of 2nd scooter = 35000

• Loss = 25%

C.P of 2nd scooter = sp×100/(100-loss)

➪35000×100/(100-25)

➪35000×100/75

➪46667

Total C.P = (46667+28000) = 74667

Total S.P = (35000+35000) = 70000

Loss = (74667-70000) = 4667

Loss % = (loss/cp×100) = 4667/74667 ×100 = 6.25%

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

➪S.P of 1 st scooter = 35000

➪Profit = 25%

C.P of 1 st scooter = sp × 100 (100 + profit)

➪35000×100/(100+25)

➪35000×100 /125

➪28000

S.P of 2nd scooter = 35000

Loss = 25%

C.P of 2nd scooter = sp×100/(100-loss)

➪35000×100/(100-25)

➪35000×100/75

➪46667

Total C.P = (46667+28000) = 74667

Total S.P = (35000+35000) = 70000

Loss = (74667-70000) = 4667

Loss % = (loss/cp×100) = 4667/74667 ×100 = 6.25%
