rita bought dress at 3000 sold it to sita for 25 % profit, sita didnt like it sold it back to rita..

Answer / samar khan

initially Rita got 25% of 3000 means 3000*25/100 = 750 as profit
and now she has sold to Sita for Rs 3750
after that Sita sold her back at 10% loss
means 3750*10/100 = 375
that is Rita paid Rs 3375 to Sita took back the dress
now Rita has the dress and Rs 3750 - Rs 3375 = Rs 375
so Rita has net profit of Rs 375 it means 12.5% gained by Rita

Answer / ambar khatri

here rita gains profit two times..firstly when she sell the
dress at 25% profit..at this time she earned a profit

90% of this is =3375
hence total profit she gained is 3375+750
