The shopkeeper collected N200 for the goods bought. He lost N2000 but gained N200. Answer Is N1800

The woman gave him counterfeit(he lost 1000, that is #800 balance plus the #200 goods)

He also had to pay his neighbor with his own money(1000)


Xo where is the #200 extra coming from?

He collected change of N1000 in N200 denomination and gave the woman N800 as her change. Where is the balance of N200?

Lost 200 for the goods sold and 1000 to his colleague

THIS SHOULD BE SO SIMPLE... if you believe that life is a joke.. end to end!!

YOU WILL GET THE WRONG ANSWER IF YOU THINK MUCH...

JUST FOLLOW IT THIS WAY:

WHATEVER THE WOMAN GAINED IN TOTAL EQUALS WHAT THE SHOPKEEPER HAD LOST...something can't come from nothing!!! at least not in this PMB administration!!! lol

The woman gained 800(CHANGE)+200(GOODS)=1K

Hence the shopkeeper lost 1000 in total...
