Answer»

It is given that the S.P is same for both of the fans.

LET the C.P of the first FAN be Rs. x

THEREFORE, C.P of the second fan be Rs. (3605-x)

Profit on the first fan = 15%

Loss on the second fan = 6%

For the first fan, S.P = 115x100

= 23x20

For the second fan, S.P = 91x100

SINCE, S.P of both the fans is the same

= 23x20 = 3605 – 91x100

= x = 1592

C.P of the first fan = Rs. 1592

C.P of the second fan = Rs.(3605-1592)

= Rs. 2012.50

The cost prices of the both of the fans are Rs.1592 and Rs. 2012.50 respectively.
