Question

If two towels of rs.100 each are sold,one at 10%profit and other at 5%loss, then net profit is?

Answer 1

cp of 1st is 100
profit 10% that is 10 rupees
Sp is 100+10=110
For second cp is 100
loss is 5% that is 5 rupees
sp of second is 100-5=95
net cp is 100+100=200
net sp is 110+95=205
profit= 205-200=5
profit %= 5/200×100=2.5%
