Profit and Loss

Question:

A dealer sold 2 fans for Rs.901 each and earns 30% profit on first and 30% loss on second. Find his total profit or loss.

Options:

200

202

190

180

Correct Answer:

180

Explanation:

CP1 = 910 × \(\frac{100}{130}\) = 700

CP2 = 910 × \(\frac{100}{70}\)   = 1300

Total CP = 2000 (700+1300)

Total SP = 1820

Loss = 2000 - 1820 = Rs.180
