Answer 1

Latika bought a teapot for Rs 120 and a set of cups for Rs 400. She sold teapot at a profit of 5% and cups at a loss of 5%. The amount received by her is Rs 506.

Explanation:

Latika bought a teapot = Rs. 120

And a set of cups = Rs. 400

She sold teapot at a profit of 5%,

So, selling price of teapot = `5/100 xx 120 + 120`

= `120/20 + 120`

= 6 + 120

= Rs. 126

Also, she sold cups at a loss of 5%.

So, selling price of cups = `400 - 5/100 xx 400`

= 400 – 20

= Rs. 380

Then, the total amount received by her = Rs. 126 + Rs. 380 = Rs. 506 

Hence, Rs 506
