Answer» Answer Selling price of two T.V. sets =2400 RS. each Let cost price of a T.V. sets on which he gain 20% be X Rs and another T.V. sets on which he lost 20% be Y Rs. SOLVING for T.V. sets on which he gain We know that, Selling price=Cost price+profit ⇒2400=X+20% of X ⇒2400=X+0.2X ⇒2400=1.2X ⇒X=1.22400 ∴X=2000 Rs Now, Solving for T.V. sets on which he loss We know that, Selling price=Cost price−loss ⇒2400=Y−20% of Y ⇒2400=Y−0.2Y ⇒2400=0.8Y ⇒Y=0.82400 ∴Y=3000 Rs Now, Total Cost price=X+Y=2000+3000=5000 Rs and Total Selling price=2×2400=4800 Rs Since Selling price So, In whole transaction, there is a Loss of 5000−4800=200 R Hope it helps Please mark me as brainliest THANKS :) |
