Answer 1

Note: Cost of second iron must be 1200 instead of 12000.

Given:

Cost of first electric iron = 900

Grain on first electric iron = 10%

Cost of second electric iron = 1200

Loss on second electric iron = 5%

To find:

The correct statement for the given problem.

Solution:

We have,

Cost of first electric iron = 900

Grain on first electric iron = 10%

Profit on first iron is

$900\times \dfrac{10}{100}=90$

Cost of second electric iron = 1200

Loss on second electric iron = 5%

Loss of second iron is

$1200\times \dfrac{5}{100}=60$

Now, profit is 90 and loss is 60. Profit is more than loss.

Exact profit = Profit - Loss

Exact profit = 90 - 60

Exact profit = 30

Therefore, Avinash get a profit of Rs. 30 on the transactions. Hence, the correct option is c.
