Question

If the difference between the cost price of item C and E is Rs. 640 and profit earned onitem C and E is 20% and 10% respectively. find the difference between the marked price ofboth iterns, if the discount given on both items is 20% each​

Answer 1

Answer:

sorry I don't no this answer

Answer 2

Solution :-

Let us assume that, cost price of Item C is Rs. C and cost price of item E is Rs. E

So,

→ C - E = 640 ---------- Eqn.(1)

also,

→ SP of item C = C * 1.2 = Rs. 1.2C

→ SP of item E = E * 1.1 = Rs. 1.1 E

then,

→ MP of item C = (SP * 100) / (100 - Discount %) = (1.2C * 100)/80 = Rs. (3C/2)

→ MP of item E = (1.1E * 100)/80 = Rs. (11E/8)

therefore,

→ (3C/2) - (11E/8)

→ (12C - 11E)/8

→ {12C - 11(C - 640)}/8

→ {12C - 11C + 7040)/8

→ (C + 7040)/8

→ Rs. (C/8 + 880)

Method 2) :-

Let CP of item C is Rs. x .

So,

→ CP of item C = Rs. x

→ Profit = 20%

→ SP of item C = Rs. 1.2x

and,

→ CP of item E = Rs. (x - 640)

→ Profit = 10%

→ SP of item E = Rs. 1.1(x - 640) = Rs.(1.1x - 704)

Now,

→ SP of item C = Rs. 1.2x

→ Discount = 20%

→ MP of item C = (1.2x * 100)/80 = Rs. 1.5x

and,

→ SP of item E = Rs. (1.1x - 704)

→ Discount = 20%

→ MP of item C = [(1.1x - 704) * 100)/80 = 1.25(1.1x - 704) = Rs.(1.375x - 880)

then,

→ Required difference = 1.5x - (1.375x - 880) = (0.125x + 880) = Rs.(x/8 + 880)

therefore, we can conclude that, the difference between marked price of both items will depend upon the cost price of item C.
