- Each of two mobile phones i.e iPhone and Sony were sold at same price in Univercell.A profit of 10% was made on iPhone and loss of 30% was made on Sony.So what is the total gain or loss?
A. 17% Loss
B. 0.14% gain
C. 14% loss
D. 14% gain
E. 0.17% Loss
Answer
C.SP of both is same.So SP1=SP2=x
So total SP=2x
CP of iPhone=(100/110)of x (10% profit)
CP of Sony=(100/70) of x (30% loss)Total CP= [(100/110)of x]+[(100/70) of x]
= (180/77) of xProfit or Loss= [(SP-CP)/CP]X100
=[(2x-(180x/77))/(180x/77)]X100
=-(13/90)x100
Negative symbol indicates loss.So 14%loss
