hema bought 2 pairs of jeans for rs 725each she sold one of them at a gain of 8% and the other at
a loss of 4% find her gain or loss percent on the whole transaction
ans gain of 2%
CP of 1st jean = 725
Gain = 8%
SP = CP + Profit
SP = 725 + 8 /100 * 725
SP = 783
CP of 2nd Jeans = 725
Loss = 4%
CP - SP = Loss
SP = CP - Loss
SP = 725 - 4/100 *725
SP = 696
Total CP = 725 + 725 = 1450
Total SP = 783 + 696 = 1479
SP - CP = Profit
Profit = 1479 - 1450 = 29.
Profit% = 29 / 1450 50 * 100
= 1 * 100 /50
