b) A man sold two books at $375 each. On the first book, he gains 25%and
the other, he loses 25%. How much does he gain or lose in the whole
transaction? Also, find the gain or loss percent in the whole transaction

Respuesta :

ANSWER
First article
SP=375
Gain%=25%
CP =
125
100×375

=300

Second article
SP=375
Loss %=25%
CP =
75
100×375

=500

Total CP =500+300=800
Total SP =375+375=700

Loss = CP − SP
Loss =800−750=50
Loss %=
800
50×100

=6.25%
