Question

Rohit bought a fridge for Rs.9450 and spent Rs.85 on its repairing. Then he sold it for Rs. 800. Find his gain or loss

Answer 1

Solution:

We are given that, Rohit brought a fridge for Rs. 9450. To repair the fridge, he spent Rs.85. This implies that:

⟹ Total expenses = Rs. (9450 + 85)

⟹ Total expenses = Rs. 9535

The selling price for the fridge is Rs. 800. Since, the selling price is lesser than that of its total expenses, Rohit had suffered a great loss. We know that,

⟹ Loss = Total expenses - Selling price

⟹ Loss = 9535 - 800

⟹ Loss = Rs. 8735

Hence, Rohit's loss is Rs. 8735.
