Answer» Answer: 1% loss Step-by-step explanation: S.P. of FIRST MOTORCYCLE = Rs.39,600 Loss = 10% => 90% of C.P. = 39,600 => 90/100 × C.P. = 39,600 => C.P. = Rs.44,000 S.P. of second motorcycle = Rs.39,600 Gain = 10% => 110% of C.P. = 39,600 => 110/100 × C.P. = 39,600 => C.P. = Rs.36,000 Total C.P. = Rs.(44,000+36,000) = Rs.80,000 Total S.P. = Rs.(39,600+39,600) = Rs.79,200 C.P. > S.P. Hence, loss = Rs.(80,000-79,200) = Rs.800 Loss% = 800/80000 × 100 = 1% |
