Imran made a profit of 20 percent in the first year. Next year he had a loss of 25 percent on the capital he had at the beginning of second year. What was his overall loss?
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
20-25-20*25/100 = -5-5=-10 since it is negative it is over all loss ie 10%. loss
20 ,-25, 20*-25
20-25- 500/100 = -10
X+y+xy/100 ( two dimension formula)
Answer:
Total Lost = 10% of x
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Imran has x rupees
If he gain the profit of 20 percent at it then
After one year the rupees of Imran = x + 20 % of x
= x + 20x / 100 = 120x/100
Now if he has a lost of 25 % on the 120x/100 then
The rupees after second year = 120x / 100 - 25 % of 120x/100
= 120x /100 - 25(120x)/10000
= 12000x /10000 - (3000x)/10000
= 9000x / 10000 = 9x/10
Thus
The rupees after second year = 9x/10 = 90x/100 = 90 % of x
And
Lost total lost = x - 90 % of x = 10 % of x
Thus
Total Lost = 10% of x
