3/4 th of 800 = 600

Balance 1/4 th that is 800-600=200 was sold at 10% gain

Rice worth Rs 600 was sold at 10% loss

∴ 600X10/100= Rs 60 loss

Balancing rice of Rs 200 was sold at 10% gain

∴ 200X 10/100 = Rs 20 gain

Rani sold 3/4th at loss .

Selling price of 3/4th is 600-60= Rs 540

Rani sold 1/4th at gain

Selling price of 1/4th is 200+20 =Rs 220

∴Total sale proceed of the transaction amount is 540+220 = Rs 760

Total cost of rice Rs 800
