|
Answer» Let the COST price of the first box be Rs. x Therefore, the cost of the SECOND box will be Rs.(1300-x) Profit on the first box = 20% Loss on the second box = 12% S.P of the first box = 120x100 = 6x5 S.P of the second box = Rs. 28600 – 88x100 = Rs.28600 – 22x25 Selling prices of both of the boxes are equal. So, = 6x5 = Rs.28600 – 22x25 = x = 14300 – 110x260 = x= 550 The cost price of first box is Rs. 550 Cost price of the second box = Rs.(1300-550) = Rs. 750 The cost prices of the 2 boxes are Rs.550 and Rs.750 respectively. Let the cost price of the first box be Rs. x Therefore, the cost of the second box will be Rs.(1300-x) Profit on the first box = 20% Loss on the second box = 12% S.P of the first box = 120x100 = 6x5 S.P of the second box = Rs. 28600 – 88x100 = Rs.28600 – 22x25 Selling prices of both of the boxes are equal.
