Question

The cost price of an article is ₹2500 which is sold at a profit of 20%. The cost price of another article is ₹3000 which is sold at a loss of 10%. Find the profit or loss% in the whole transaction.

Answer 1

CP = 2500

MP = 2500 + (2500 * 20/100) = 3000

CP = 3000

MP = 3000 + (3000 * 10/100) = 3300

Hence no discount is given Thgerefore MP = SP

Gain:- CP = 2500 SP = 3000 = 500

Gain:- CP = 3000 SP = 3300 = 300

Gain% = 500 + 300 / 2500 + 3000 * 100 = 800/5500 * 100  = 800/55 = 160/11% (Answer)

Answer 2

Answer:

3.63 %

Step-by-step explanation:

cost price of the first object =2500

so , let 100%=2500

profit=20%

so 120=2500 /100*120=3000

and another cost price =3000

like that loss10

then 90=3000/100*90=2700

3000+2700=5700(sold price )

cost price =3000+2500=5500

profit=5700-5500=200

profit%=200/5500*100=40/11=3.63%(answer)
