Answer 1

Given:

Cost price(CP) of each article=Rs. 8000

Profit of 8% on TV

Loss of 4% on VCR

Cost price of TV =Rs. 8000

Profit on  TV = Cost price × profit %

Profit on TV =8% of 8000

=> 8000 × 8/100  

=> 80×8

=> Rs. 640

Cost Price of VCR =Rs. 8000

Loss on VCR = Cost price × Loss %

Loss on VCR = 4% of 8000

=> 4/100 * 8000

=> 80×4

=> Rs. 320

Since profit  is more than loss,

Hence, the shopkeeper gains net profit

Net Profit=640−320=Rs. 320

Now

Total cost Price of both article=8000+8000=Rs. 16000

Profit(%) = profit/CP * 100

Profit (%)=  320/16000  ×100

Profit(%)= 32/16

Profit(%)=2%

Hence, the gain in the whole transaction =2%.
