Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

23. Hema bought two pairs of jeans for 1450 each. She sold one of them at a gain of % and the other at a loss of 4%. Find her gain or loss per cent in the whole transaction.

Mathematics

1

CP of one jeans = Rs 725

Gain percentage = 8%

CP of the other jeans = Rs 725

Loss percentage = 4%

Total CP of the two pairs of jeans = Rs () = Rs 1450

Total SP of the two pairs of jeans = Rs (696 + 783) = Rs1479

Since SP >CP, there is a gain in the whole transaction.

Now, gain = Rs (1479 − 1450) = Rs 29

Hence, Hema gains 2% on the whole transaction.
