Question

Mr. Sharma sold his two cycles for P1,995 each. On one he gained 5% and on the
other he lost 5%. Find the total gain or loss percent to Mr. Sharma.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

SP of 1st cycle = Rs.1995

Gain = 5 %

CP = SP×100/100+Gain %

= 1,995×100/100+5

= 1,995×100/105

= Rs.1900

SP of 2nd cycle = Rs.1,995

Loss = %%

CP = SP×100/100-Loss %

= 1,995×100/100-5

= 1,995×100/95

= Rs.2100

Total CP of both cycles = Rs.(2100+1900)  =Rs.4000

= Rs.4,000

Total SP of both cycles = Rs.(1,995×2)

= Rs.3990

Loss = CP - SP

= Rs.(4,000-3,990)

= Rs.10

Loss % = Loss/CP × 100

= 10/4000*100

= 0.25%

Answer 2

0.25%
