Answer 2

The cost price of pendrive is 1250.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

A pendrive was sold at a profit of 10%.

Had it been sold for ₹ 25 more, the profit would have been 12%.

Here observe that to increase the profit by 2% we need to sold the pendrive for ₹ 25 more.

That means we need to find a number which 2% is 25.

Let the number is x.

$x=\frac{2500}{2}$

$x=1250$
