    A) 1% loss

    C)  No loss no gain

    D)  2% loss  

    Correct Answer: A

    By using the rule, When there is a profit of x% and loss of y%, then the resultant Profit/Loss \[=\left( x-y-\frac{xy}{100} \right)%\] Here, \[x=y=10%\] \[=\left( 10-10-\frac{10\times 10}{100} \right)=-\,\,1%\] = 1% loss
