and on the other suffens a loss
of 10% Find overall profit
and Loss​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Find total selling Price:

one box = Rs 1400

two boxes = 1400 x 2 = Rs 2800

Find the cost price of the first box:

Profit = 10%

Selling Price = 100 + 10 = 110%

110% = Rs 1400

1% = 1400 ÷ 110 = 140/11

100% = 140/11 x 100 = Rs 14000/11

Find the cost price of the second box:

Loss = 10%

Selling Price = 100 - 10 = 90%

90% = Rs 1400

1% = 1400 ÷ 90

100% = 140/9 x 100 = Rs 14000/9

Find the total cost price:

Total cost price = Rs 14000/11 + Rs 14000/9 = Rs 2828.28

Find the profit:

Profit = 2828.28 - 2800 = Rs 28.28

Find the profit percentage:

Profit Percentage = 28.28/2800 x 100 = 1%

Answer: The profit of the 2 article is 1%
