Question

Ramesh sold two laptops at ₹40,000 each. On one laptop he gained 20% and on the other he lost 20% . Find his overall loss or gain percent .​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

selling price of first laptop= 40000

gain=20%

cost price of the laptop=40000*100/120=100000/3

selling price of 2nd laptop=40000

loss=20%

cost price of this laptop=40000*100/80=50000

total cost price= 250000/3

total selling price=80000

loss=10000/3

loss%= (10000/3)/(250000/3) *100=4%
