• 15 pounds .. lets assume he initially has 100 pounds
  after 1st dealing-85
  after 2nd dealing-105
  after 3rd dealing-75
  after 4th dealing-115
  
  therfore, gain is 100-115=15

• 15 ponds
  15+30=45
  20+40=60
  60-45=15
  so 15 ponds

• 5 in 1st case and 10 in 2nd case. total: 15 pounds

• i think the answer is-> profit 5 pound..
  sol.-> 1st buy for 15 pound, sell it for 20 pound. so profit=(20-15)=5 pound.
  again he buy the same horse for 30 pound. so he loss..(30-20)=10 pound.
  then he sell it for 40 pound. so he made profit=(40-30)=10 pound. so, loss=profit=10 pound. it deletes.... he actually now profit 5 pounds.. :)

• 15 pounds
  Since the total cost price for that person comes out to be 45 and total selling price is 60 whatever be the scenario is.
• 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
• Total cost price=(15+30)=45
  Total selling price=(20+40)=60
  Profit=(60-45)=15
  profit% = (15*100)/45
  =33.33%

  20- 15=5
  40- 30=10
  profit 5+10
