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
