Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Description for Correct answer:

X:Y

Quantity 3:2=5units

SP of 1 unit=Rs. 11

SP of 5 units=Rs. 55

CP of 1 unit=Rs. 10

then CP of 5 units=Rs. 50

Let

Y's cost = z Rs.

X's cost = z+2 Rs.

CP=Quantity×Cost

50=3(z+2)+2z

50=3z+6+2z

z=8.80 Rs.

Cost of X=8.80+2=10.80 Rs.
