Given : The cost of 30 flats was 60 lakh each.
A builder sold 1/3 of the flats at 15% profit and
1/6 of the flats at 6% loss.
He suffers a net loss of 10% after selling the remaining flats,
To Find : his loss percentage in the remaining flats
Solution:
Cost of 1 flat = 30 Lakhs
Cost of 60 flats = 60 * 30 = 1800 Lakhs
a net loss of 10% = (10/100) 1800 = 180 lakhs
Net sell Price = 1800 - 180 = 1620 Lakhs
sold 1/3 of the flats at 15% profit and
=> Flats = (1/3) * 30 = 10
Selling price = 60 + (15/100)60 = 69 lakhs
Selling price of 10 flats = 10 * 69 = 690 lakhs
1/6 of the flats at 6% loss.
=> Flats = (1/6) * 30 = 5
Selling price = 60 - (6/100)60 = 56.4 lakhs
Selling price of 5 flats = 5 * 56.4 = 282 lakhs
Remaining Flats = 30 - 10 - 5 = 15
Remaining Flats sold in = 1620 - 690 - 282 = 646 lakhs
Remaining flats costs = 15 * 60 = 900 lakhs
Loss = 900 - 646 = 254 lakhs
Loss % = (254/900) * 100 = 254/9 % = 28.22 %
his loss percentage in the remaining flats = 28.22 %
