Answer 2

Answer:

The loss percentage = 2.85%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Rahul sold 2 TV sets

selling price of each TV set = 49200 Rs

gain percentage on one TV set = 20%

loss percentage on another TV set = 10%

here we need to find his gain or loss in total transaction

from given data total selling price of 2 TV sets = 2(49200) = 98400 Rs.

he gains 20% on one TV set  

then cost price of the TV set = $\frac{S.P}{100+ P} (100)$

                                               = $\frac{49200 }{100+ 20} (100)$  

                                               = $\frac{49200 }{120} (100)$  = 41000 Rs.  

he lost 10% on other TV set  

then cost price of the TV set  = $\frac{S.P}{(100- L)} (100)$  

                                                 = $\frac{49200}{(100-10)} (100)$

                                                 = $\frac{49200}{90} (100)$  

                                                 = 54666.66 Rs.            

total cost price of two TV sets = 41000+54666.66 = 95666.66  

here the selling price > the cost price

Rahul will gain in this total transaction

profit =  98400 - 95666.66  = 2,733.33

gain percentage = (profit/ C.P) (100 )

                           = (2733.33/ 95666.66) (100)

                           = 2.85 %
