Answer 1

Answer: CP = 20 ; SP = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

c.p = 20rs

S.P = 25rs

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 : Since , the 5 time of c.p is equal to 4 times of s.p, c.p and s.p are in ratio 4:5, c.p/s.p = 4/5

Step 2: And given that s.p is 5rs more than c.p,

thus let's take c.p = x and s.p = x+5.

Step 3: lets substitute step 2 values in step 1 , thus

x/x+5 = 4/5 ,

5x=4x+20

x=20, thus c.p = 20rs

s.p = 20+5 = 25rs
