Answer» Let the article COSTS 'X' to A COST price of B = 1.2X Cost price of C = 0.75(1.2X) = 0.9X Cost price of D = 1.4(0.9X) = 1.26X = 252 Amount paid by A for the article = RS. 200. Let the article costs 'X' to A Cost price of B = 1.2X Cost price of C = 0.75(1.2X) = 0.9X Cost price of D = 1.4(0.9X) = 1.26X = 252 Amount paid by A for the article = Rs. 200. |
