Question

Maria bought two fans for Rs1200 each . she sold one at
a loss of 5% and the other at a profit of 10% .find the selling price of each

Answer 1

$selling \: price \: of \: 1260 \: ruppes$

Answer 2

$\sf \: Total \: CP = 2 × 1200 = Rs.2400$

$\sf \: SP \: at \: 5\% \: loss = \frac{95}{100} \times 1200 = Rs.1140$

$\sf \: SP \: at \: 10\% \: gain = \frac{110}{100} ×1200 = Rs.1320$

$\sf \: Total \: SP = 1140 + 1320 = Rs.2460$

$\sf \: Gain = 2460 - 2400 = Rs.60$

$\sf \: Gain\%= \frac{60}{2400} \times 100\% = \color{red}2.5\%$
