Answer 1

Answer:

725

Step-by-step explanation:

The profit is additional of original cost. Here the Original cost is rs. 650. Profit is rs. 75. So, the selling price is

650+75 = 725

Answer 2

${ \star{ \underline{ \underline { \sf \blue{Aɳʂɯҽɾ:- }}}}}$

The cost price of clocks A and B are say x and (650-x), respectively.

On clock A he makes a profit of 20%. So he sold A at 1.2x.

On clock B he suffers a loss of 20%. So he sold B at 0.8(650-x).

But the SP of A and B are the same.

Or 1.2x = 0.8(650-x) = 520-0.8x, or

2x = 520, or

x = 260.

So he bought clock A at Rs.260 and clock B at (650–260) or Rs.390.
