Answer 1

Answer:

560,400

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

A merchant bought two radios for 960 rupees

let x be CP of first radio (960-x) is CP of second radio

He sold one radio at a loss of 15% and another at 19% profit.

loss=(100-15)=>85%of x =>SP of first radio

profit=(100+19)=>119% of (960-x)=>SP of second radio

If both the radios were sold at the same price, then each is worth​

SP of first radio=SP of second radio

85%ofx=119%of(960-x)

x=560

960-560=400
