A man sells two cows for Rs.15,640 each, gaining 15% on one and losing 15% on the other. Find his total gain or loss. |
Rs.720 loss Rs.360 loss Rs.720 gain Rs.360 gain |
Rs.720 loss |
Selling price of first = Selling price of second Now ATQ, For first cow, If, 115% of CP = 15640 Then, 100% of CP = 13600 For second cow, If, 85% of CP = 15640 100% of CP = 18400 Total CP= 18400 + 13600= 32000 Total SP = 15640 + 15640 = 31280 Loss = 32000 - 31280 = Rs.720 loss |
