Sudhir purchased a laptop for ₹42,000 and a scanner-cum-printer for ₹8,000. He sold the laptop for a 10% profit and the scanner-cum-printer for a 5% profit. What is his profit percentage?
Cost price of laptop = Rs.42000
Profit = 10%
Selling price = 42000 $$\times \frac{110}{100}$$ = Rs.46200
Cost price of printer = Rs.8000
Profit = 5%
Selling price = 8000 $$\times \frac{105}{100}$$ = Rs.8400
Total selling price = 46200 + 8400 = Rs.54600
Total cost price = 42000 + 8000 = Rs.50000
Total profit = 54600 - 50000 = Rs.4600
Total profit% = $$\frac{4600}{50000} \times 100 = 9 \frac{1}{5}$$
