Step-by-step explanation:

total sold amount = 1200+1350=2550

profit amount on first radio = 1200 - (1200/1.2) = 1000

purchase amount of 1st radio = Rs. 1000

total purchased amount = (2550/1.02) = Rs. 2500

purchase amount of second radio = 2500 - 1000 = Rs. 1500

loss % on second radio = ((1500-1350) / 1500) * 100 = 10%
