answer with explanation : )

Hey!

Solution:

So he got a 20% profit on $1.20.

20% of 1.20 → 0.2 x 1.20 → 0.24

Same thing goes with 20% loss.

20% of 1.20 → 0.2 x 1.20 → 0.24

On the sale of the pipes, he gained a profit of $0.24 and lost a profit of $0.24, so the sale is (a) broke even.

Hope This Helps :)
