Question

Wasim bought two cricket bats for 840 and 360 respectively. He sells the first bat at a
gain of 15% and the second one at a loss of 5%. Find his gain or loss per cent in the whole
transaction.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of first bat = Rs.840

Selling price at 5% profit = 840×1.15=966 Rs

The cost price of seconds bat= Rs.840

Selling price at 5% loss=360×0.95=342Rs

Total gained price 966Rs + 342Rs= 1308Rs

Cost price of both bat = 360 + 840 = 1200Rs

Profit%= 1308-1200/1200×100

Profit = 90%

90% is answer
