Answer:
take total cp and so of 2 articles.
check if cp is greater or sp is greater
Step-by-step explanation:
sp of iron =1232
cp/sp = 100/100+p
cp = sp*100/100+12
cp=1232*100/112
cp=123200/112
cp =1100
profit%= 12%
sp of flask=1232
loss= 12%
cp = 1232*100/100-12( as above written , but here loss )
cp= 123200/88
cp =1400
total cp = 2500
total so = 2464
as cp is more than sp , so overall loss is loss.
2500-2464= 36
loss% = loss/total cp *100
loss% = 36/2500*100
loss%= 36/25= 1.44%
or
(common gainor loss/10)²
(12/10)²
144/100=1.44%
