harry bought 24 metres of cloth at 40 per metre . he sold 12 metres for 45 per metre and the rest for 38 per metre . fine his profit or loss per cent.​

Answer 1

given c.p of 24m=46/m=960

s.p of 12 m=45/m=540

c.p of 12 m=40/m=480

profit =s.p-c.p=540-480=60

s.p of remaining 12m=38/m=456

c.p of remaining 12m=40/m=480

loss=480-456=24

therefore profit =60rupees

loss=24 rupees
