Answer 2

SP of first saree = Rs 2185 on one saree she lost 5% therefore CP =100×SP÷100-Loss%
=100×2185÷100-5%
=218500÷95=2300
SP of the second saree=
2185 and profit gained =15%
Therefore CP=100×SP÷100+Profit %
=100×2185÷100+15%
=218500÷115=1900
Total CP=2300+1900
=4200.
Total SP=2×2185=4370
Hence Profit=SP-CP=4370-4200=Rs170
Profit%=Profit÷CP ×100
=170÷4200×100=4.04761
Thus Profit%=4.04761
