Question
Two items were sold at Rs. 9000 each. The first was sold
at 50 percent loss and the second was sold at 50 percent profit. Find the total loss on selling both the items.Solution
The cost price of the item sold in profit = 9000 × 100/150 = Rs. 6000 The cost price of the item sold in loss = 9000 × 100/50 = Rs. 18,000 Total CP = 6000 + 18000 = 24,000 Total SP = 2 × 9000 = 18,000 Loss = CP - SP = 6,000 ∴ The total loss is Rs. 6000
