One man bought some toffees at the rate of Rs. 2 for 15 pieces. He sold them at the rate of half of money for 5 pieces and at the rate of remaining half of money for 10 pieces. What will be his profit/loss percentage?
Cost price of 15 toffees is Rs. 2
Half of money is Rs. 1
He sold 5 toffees for Rs 1
He sold another 10 toffees for Rs. 1
∴ he sold 15 toffees for Rs. 2
Hence he bought at the same rate and sold them at same rate
Profit =0
Loss/profit percent =
× 100%
=
= 0%
∴ Neither Profit nor Loss.
