Answer 1

Answer:

Let the cost price of the bicycle for A be Rs x Given A sells the bicycle at a profit of 20% This becomes the CP for B. Hence CP of bicycle for B = (6x/5) Given B sells the bicycle to C at a profit of 25% This SP becomes CP for C. Given that CP of the bicycle for C is Rs 1500 Hence A paid Rs 1000 to buy the bicycle.

Answer 2

Answer:

900

Step-by-step explanation:

if Mr C pays ₹`1500 then

1500×25/100=

15×25=375

=1500-375=1125

*Then Mr B pays ₹1125 and sells at a profit of 25% to Mr C

to find the amount payed by MR A=

(first we have to subtract profit at which he selled the bicycle - amount he payed)

= 1125×20/100

=1125×2/10

=2250/10

=225

=1125-225

=900
