CP of rice = 750
Total he spent on rice = 750 + 50 = Rs. 800
3/4 of CP = 800 x 3/4 = Rs. 600
His loss in 3/4 = 10%
SP of 3/4 th = x
x/600 x 100 = 90
x = 540
SP of 3/4 rice = Rs. 540
CP of 1/4th rice = 800 - 600 = Rs. 200
Profit = 10
SP of 1/4 th = y
y/200 x 100 = 110
y = 220
SP of 1/4th rice = Rs. 220
Total CP = 800
Total SP = 540 + 220 = 760
760 ∠ 800
SP ∠ CP
He loss 800 - 760 = Rs. 40
in percent = 40/800 x 100 = 5% loss
His loss in total transaction is Rs.40 (5%)
