Answer»
Answer Buy of land =Rs. 480000 5 2
×480000=Rs. 192000 Loss=6% 100 100−6
×192000=Rs. 180480 Total gain=10% 100 100+10
×480000=Rs. 528000 S.P=528000−180480=Rs. 347520 C.P of remaining PART of land = 5 3
×480000=Rs. 288000 Gain% of remaining part of land = C.P S.P−C.P
×100 = 288000 347520−288000
×100 =20.6% Hence, this is the answer. |
