Answer 1

Answer:

1% loss

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved in two methods

1) If the Selling price of the 2 articles  are same.The one gain percent is equal to the one loss percent,then the percentage change is %*%/100=always loss

Mukesh sold two Doberman pups at Rs 7000 each. On one he earns a profit of 10% and on the other; he loses 10%. Find his total profit or loss percent.​

                                                      =(10*10)/100

                                                     =1% loss

2)Mukesh sold two Doberman pups at Rs 7000 each. On one he earns a profit of 10%  

                                        SP is 110%=7000

                                        CP is 100%=70000/11

on the other; he loses 10%.

                                        SP is 90%=7000

                                        CP is 100%=70000/9

SP=7000+7000=>14000

CP=70000/11+70000/9

    =(630000+770000)/99

    =1400000/99

Loss=CP-SP

      =(1400000/99)-14000

Loss%=Loss/CP*100

         =((14000/99)/(1400000/99))*100

         =1%
