Answer 1

Answer:

1.5% profit on total transaction

Step-by-step explanation:

sofaset 15000 purchase price

LED. 15000 purchase price

total purchase 30000

LED sell 6% loss on 15000

ie.15000-900= 14100 is selling price of LED

sofa sell 9% profit on 15000

I.e. 15000+1350=16350

total sell 16350+14100=30450

450 gain 8n transaction

now find percentage

450= (X/100)*30000

450=x*300

X=450/300

X=45/30

X=3/2

X=1.5

1.5% profit on total transaction
