    Explanation:
    Total cost price of 35 units of article A and 48 units of
    article C = 150 × 35 + 240 × 48 = Rs. 16770
    Since article A is sold at loss;
    ∴ Selling price of A = 150 × 0.8 = Rs. 120
    Since article C is sold at profit;
    ∴ Selling price of C = 240 × 1.35 = Rs. 324
    Total selling price of 35 number of article A and 48
    number of article C = 120 × 35 + 324 × 48 = Rs. 19752
    ∴ Overall profit percentage = (19752 – 16770)/16770 =17.78%
