Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

C.P of the T.V. is 18000 each

Profit on one T.V = 20%

20/100*18000

= 3600

Loss on another T.V is 5%

5/100*18000

= 900

S.P. of the first T.V. on which she get profit is 18000+3600

= 21600

S.P of another T.V on which she get loss is 18000-900

=17100

Total C.P is 18000+18000

= 36000

Total S.P is 21600+17100

= 38700

38700≥ 36000

So, profit is there

profit percent = profit/ C.P *100%

= 38700-36000

= 2700

Profit percent= 2700/36000*100%

= 270/36

= 7.5%
