A man bought some pencils for Rs. 30 and some pens for Rs. 90. The nextday, he again bought some pencils for Rs. 25. Then, he sold all the pencils for Rs. 20 and the pens for Rs. 70. What was his net gain or loss?

Answer»

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost price = price of pencil + price of pen

30 + 90 + 25

= Rs 145

Total amount sold = price of pen + price of pencil

20 + 70

= Rs 90

SELLING price - cost price = 90 - 145

= -55

The NEGATIVE sign implies loss

HENCE , his net loss was Rs 55

I hope it will help you
