Question

Arun sold two Bicycles at Rs. 3600 each. He got 20% profit on first
bicycle and 20% loss on second bicycle. Find his total profit or loss.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Arun sold out two cycles at ₹3600 each . let first cycle be A and second be B

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 3600× 20÷100

= 36×20

= 720

Then second cycle loss 20%of it rate ,,

B = 3600×-20÷100

= 36×--20

= -720

THEREFORE THE PROFIT AND LOSS IS ZERO BECAUSE THE FIRST CYCLE MADE PROFIT OF ₹720, AND THE SECOND CYCLE MADE LOSS OF 720.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:

C.P={100}{100+P}} {×SP}

= {100}{120}} {×3600}

CP=3000

If it's loss,

Formula :

C.P={100}{100-L}} {×SP}

={100}{80}} {×3600}

CP=4500

Now,

Total cost price = 4500 + 3000 = ₹7500

Total selling price = 3600 + 3600 = ₹7200

CP > SP so, it's loss of ₹300

Loss% = {Loss}{CP}} {×100}

= {300}{7500}} {×100}

Loss% = 4 percent
