Question

. Hema purchased two shades for 1200Rs. each. She sold one at a loss of 5%
and the other at the profit of 10%. Find the selling price of each. What was the
total profit or loss?​

Answer 1

Answer:

cost of 1 shade = 1200÷2=600rs.

loss =5%

sp= 100-loss × cp÷100

then,

sp = 100-5×600÷100

=95×600÷100

=570

loss=600-570=30rs.

now,

profit = 10%

then ,

sp = 100+profit×cp÷100

=100+10×600÷100

=110×600÷100

= 110×6

=660

profit = 660- 600

=60rs.
