Question

Pankaj sells to cycle for rupees 2376 each on one he gain 10% and other he loses 10% find his gain or loss percent

Answer 1

sp of 2 cycle=₹2376
sp of 1 cycle=₹1×2376/2
=₹1188
sp of first cycle=1188₹
profit%=10%
cp=?
profit%=(sp-cp÷cp)×100
10=(1188-cp ÷cp)×100
1=(1188-cp÷cp)×100÷10
10cp=(11880-10cp)
10cp=118800-100cp
10cp+cp=11880
11cp=11880
cp=11880÷11
cp=1080₹
sp of second cycle=1188₹
loss%=10%
cp=?
loss%(cp - sp÷cp)×100
10=(cp - 1188÷cp)×100
cp=(cp - 1188)×100÷10
cp=(cp - 1188)×10
cp=10cp - 11880
cp-10cp=11880
9cp=11880
cp=11880÷9
cp=₹1320
sp=2376
cp=1080+1320
=2400
as cp>sp,loss
loss=cp-sp
=2400-2376
=24₹
