CP = x
10 = Profit/CP x 100
10 = (SP - CP )/CP x100
10 = (SP - x)/x x 100
10x = 100SP - 100x
SP = 110x/100
If sold for 930 more profit would be 25%
25 = Profit/CP x 100
25x = 100SP - 100x
SP = 125x/100
2nd SP - 1st SP = 930
125x/100 - 110x/100 = 930
15x/100 = 930
x = 93000/15 = 6200
CP of Cow = Rs. 6200
