Question

D) A shopkeeper bought two radios for Rs 6,000. He sold one of them at a profit of 20℅

and the other at a loss of 10%. If he gained 2% on his total outlay, at what
he buy each radio?​

Answer 1

2400 and 3600

Explanation:

Radio 1 cost = x

Radio 2 cost= 6000- x

• x*1.2+(6000-x)*0.9= 6000*1.02
• 1.2x-0.9x+5400=6120
• 0.3x= 6120-5400
• 0.3x= 720
• x=720/0.3
• x= 2400
• 6000- x= 3600
